They had just left a Mike Tyson fight held at the MGM Grand, when the 25-year-old rapper was shot as he stood up through the sunroof to talk to a group of women while the car was stopped at a traffic light. Shakur was hit four times - twice in the chest, once in the arm, and once in the leg. He eventually died six days later on September 13. The identity of Shakur's killer remains a mystery to this day.
