Earlier in the night, just hours before the shooting, Takeoff took to social media to share a selfie from the bowling alley.
This is so sad! I just don’t understand why people have to resort to shooting and killing someone over an argument. This makes me so angry! R.I.P. Takeoff. I pray that God gives the family peace and understanding at this time.
