Duane “Keffe D” Davis — a self-described former gang member who has publicly claimed to have witnessed the killing — was arrested by Las Vegas police early Friday, according to multiple news outlets, including the Associated Press. He had previously been indicted on a charge of #murder w/ use of a deadly weapon by a Clark County grand jury, according to prosecutors. It is the first #arrest police have made in the 27-year-old case.
Among the items they #seized were a copy of Vibe magazine featuring #Tupac & a copy of Davis’s 2019 memoir, “Compton Street Legend,” in which he claims to be one of the last living witnesses to the attack on #TupacShakur.
In that book & various interviews, #Davis has said he was in the Cadillac that pulled up alongside Tupac’s BMW at a red light in Las Vegas on the night of Sept. 7, 1996.
