The Grammy-nominated rapper and his uncle Quavo, 31, had attended a private party where dice games were played.
Quavo was seen in video footage arguing with a group of individuals outside the 810 Billiards & Bowling Houston as a crowd gathered.
At one point, someone in the crowd arguing with Quavo was heard saying: ‘Now listen, man – ain’t got to be disrespectful like that.’
Quavo replies with a line about basketball, saying: ‘Y’all seen me play basketball. Don’t play like that.’
Someone can be heard in the crowd saying: ‘Let it go, bro.’ Then seconds later gunshots were heard. Takeoff was shot in the ‘head or neck’ in the dispute.
Police confirmed that the artist died at the scene of the incident,
