y Sean Combs: The Reckoning. Shakur was killed Sept. 7, 1996, in Las Vegas. He and Death Row Records founder Marion Suge Knight were sitting at a red light when a white Cadillac pulled up beside them near the Las Vegas Strip, and gunfire erupted. Shakur was shot multiple times and died six days later. Knight survived with minor injuries. Three others were with Davis in the Cadillac, including his nephew, Orlando Baby Lane Anderson, but Davis is the only person still alive. None of the others faced charges in Shakur's killing before they died. In his memoir, Davis said he obtained a handgun from an associate and tossed it into the back seat of the Cadillac but did not say who fired the fatal shots. In the 2008 interview, Davis described how he and his crew saw Shakur that night and pulled up beside them, and said that Anderson popped them. Anderson denied involvement in Shakur's killing at the time. He died two years later in an unrelated gang shooting in Compton, California. A witness testified to the grand jury that Anderson didn't have a clear shot, so Deandrae Freaky Smith took the gun and fired. Davis wrote in his book that investigators were clearly shocked and surprised when he began answering questions about Tupac's death. He also expressed regrets about talking to them. It kills me on the inside to know that I told them anything, he wrote.
