A suspect has been arrested in the killing of the rapper Takeoff, Houston's police chief announced during a press conference Friday afternoon.
Police Sgt. Michael Burrow said during the news conference that the shooting followed a dispute over a game of dice, but that Takeoff was not involved and was"an innocent bystander."
Joshua is facing a charge of unlawful carrying of a weapon for allegedly having a handgun when the rapper, whose off-stage name was Kirsnick Khari Ball, was killed around 2:30 a.m. on Nov. 1 as gunfire erupted outside of 810 Billiards & Bowling following a private party. Christopher Downey, Joshua's attorney, told reporters he has not seen anything to suggest his client fired a weapon or had anything to do with Takeoff's shooting.When asked if Joshua knows who shot Takeoff, Downey said,"We will discuss that with the DA's office if we decide to. Right now, we're charged with offenses and we're not saying anything."
