One Night in Las Vegas: The Tupac Shakur Murder

On the night of September 7, 1996, in Las Vegas, hip-hop icon Tupac Shakur was shot four times while sitting in a car idling at a stoplight. Shakur died six days later at a local hospital. His death was devastating to his family, friends and millions of fans. It also further inflamed tensions between rival record companies on the west and east coasts, as well as between the street gangs associated with them. To mark the 25th anniversary of this horrific event, in 2021, The Mob Museum interviewed Andreas Hale, who witnessed the events at MGM Grand that led up to the shooting, Chris Carrol, LVMPD officer who responded to the scene of the murder and journalist Glenn Puit from the Las Vegas Review-Journal who covered the ensuing investigation.
