Las Vegas police have made an arrest for the first time in the 1996 killing of rapper Tupac Shakur. A person with first-hand knowledge of the arrest who wasn't authorized to publicly speak about the case told The Associated Press that Duane Davis was taken into custody Friday morning.
Police reported collecting multiple computers, a cellphone and hard drive, a Vibe magazine that featured Shakur, several .40-caliber bullets, two “tubs containing photographs” and a copy of Davis’ 2019 tell-all memoir, “Compton Street Legend.”
The shooting happened shortly after a casino brawl earlier in the evening involving Anderson, Shakur and others. Greg Kading, a retired Los Angeles police detective who spent years investigating the Shakur killing and wrote a book about it, said he would not be surprised by Davis’s indictment and arrest.
Kading said also that he talked with a Las Vegas police detective about the case, including after the SWAT raid in July at the home in Henderson. “He put himself squarely in the middle of the conspiracy,” Kading said of Davis and the Shakur slaying. “He had acquired the gun, he had given the gun to the shooter and he had been present in the vehicle when they hunted down and located both Tupac and Suge .”
