Police in Las Vegas have confirmed they served a search warrant this week in connection with the long-unsolved killing of legendary rapper Tupac Shakur, propelling the case back into the spotlight nearly 30 years after his death.
Shakur, one of the most prolific figures in hip-hop, was gunned down on the night of September 7, 1996, in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas. He was 25.
Police searched a house outside of Las Vegas in connection with the killing, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said on Tuesday.
No additional information regarding who owned the house or what led police to conduct the search was given.
No arrests have ever been made in the killing of Shakur, yet attention on the case has endured for decades.
In a press statement, the police department said it “can confirm a search warrant was served in Henderson, Nevada on July 17, 2023, as part of the ongoing Tupac Shakur homicide investigation.”
