The report says the fatally injured rapper remained conscious after the shooting and believed Suge Knight was the one who is severely injured. Tupac told Suge: “You the one they shot in the head. You shot in the head”. The rapper was apparently unaware of his injuries at first.
Knight then drove him to the hospital, where the musician succumbed to his injuries. The doctors were unfortunately unable to save his life, and Suge gave a statement later that evening to the police, detailing what happened that night when they were attacked.
