Описание: The Unsolved Murder of Tupac Shakur: Shot in Las Vegas, Dead at 25

On September 7th, 1996, Tupac Shakur was sitting at a red light in Las Vegas when a white Cadillac pulled up alongside. Someone opened fire. Four bullets hit Tupac—in his chest, arm, and thigh. He was rushed to the hospital and fought for his life for six days. On September 13th, 1996, Tupac died. He was 25 years old. The murder was never solved—no arrests were made for nearly 30 years. Just six months later, Biggie Smalls was also murdered in LA. Two of hip-hop's greatest, dead within six months, both unsolved. This is Tupac's story—from Black Panther baby to rap legend to unsolved murder victim.
