In December 2022, Houston police arrested a man named Patrick Xavier Clark for the shooting death of Takeoff, whose real name was Kirsnick Khari Ball. The incident took place outside a private party at a Downtown Houston bowling alley in the early hours of November 1, 2022, as per FOX 5. The victim and his uncle Quavo, a fellow Migos member, were attending the event. Two others were also injured during the gunfire but survived.
Earlier this year, in May, a grand jury indicted Clark on a murder charge. Police alleged that camera footage captured him with a gun and a wine bottle in each of his hands. He then fired multiple bullets, which allegedly hit Takeoff in the head and torso. The accused maintains his innocence.
Where is Takeoff’s suspected shooter Patrick Xavier Clark now?
Rolling Stone reported that Patrick Xavier Clark has been on house arrest with a GPS monitor since January 2023. The 35-year-old remains the primary suspect in Migos rapper Takeoff’s shooting death on November 1, 2022. Police arrested Clark a month after the incident that took place outside a private event at 810 Billiards & Bowling in downtown Houston.
According to abc13, there was a group of at least 34 people standing outside the bowling alley prior to the incident, including Takeoff and Quavo. The latter was allegedly arguing with a man named Michael Prince and two other men over a game of dice. That’s when multiple people started shooting during that confrontation.
The outlet reported that detectives claimed Clark, who was holding a wine bottle and a gun, fired the shots that killed the rapper. They also found his fingerprints on the wine bottle and officially identified him as the shooter.
Police arrested the suspect on December 2, 2022. They also learned that he had purchased plane tickets to Mexico two days before authorities apprehended him. Moreover, they found a massive stash of cash on the then-34-year-old at the time of his arrest. Since his January 5, 2023, bond worth $1 million, he had been on house arrest with a GPS ankle monitor.
