The rapper, whose name was Takeoff, died from gunshot wounds to the head and torso.

The Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences in Houston conducted an autopsy on the rapper, who died Tuesday.

Takeoff died of gunshot wounds to the head and torso, and his manner of death was called homicides.

Takeoff, whose off-stage name was Kirsnick Khari Ball, formed a third of the rap trio with uncle Quavo and cousin Offset.

Around 2:30 a.m., the 28-year-old rap artist was killed. There was a private party at the billiards and bowling establishment.

Houston Police Chief Troy Finner said investigators want to speak with 40 people who fled after the gunfire.

Finner said at least two people discharged guns.

There was no reason to believe that Takeoff was involved in any criminal activity at the time.

Quality Control mourns Takeoff's death in a statement. We are devastated by the fact that violence has taken another life.

The bowling alley is located in a three-story Houston retail complex and is close to a Four Seasons hotel.

There is a memorial with roses, candles, and a teddy bear on the first floor.

The Astros baseball team was in the middle of a World Series run that was the most-viewed in the last year. Crime is a major political issue this year.

The mayor and police chief in Houston acknowledged the concerns and said the violent crime rate is down. Finner did not say that Takeoff's killing had anything to do with his work in music.

The band broke through with a huge hit called "Versace" They had four Top 10 hits on the Hot 100, but Takeoff wasn't on one of them. The first two albums in the trilogy, "Culture" and "Culture II", hit the top of the charts.

The husband and wife team of Takeoff and Quavo released a joint album last month.

That's right.
