The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) confirmed the search took place in Henderson, Nevada, on July 17, 2023, but declined to provide further details at this time.Shakur, known for his influential contributions to the music industry, was fatally shot on September 7, 1996, in Las Vegas. He succumbed to his injuries six days later at the age of 25. The incident occurred while Tupac was attending a boxing match alongside music executive Suge Knight. As the pair drove on Las Vegas Boulevard in a black sedan, a white Cadillac pulled up beside them and unleashed a barrage of gunfire.The murder of Tupac Shakur was followed by another tragedy in the rap community several months later. On March 9, 1997, rapper Christopher Wallace, widely known as the Notorious B.I.G., was shot and killed in Los Angeles, California. Many believe the shooting was connected to Tupac's murder, but the case also remains unresolved.Biggie's murder brought public attention to the so-called "East Coast–West Coast hip hop rivalry," which many believe was one of the reasons that led to the deaths of the musicians, and called for reconciliation between the two sides.

Las Vegas Police Execute Search Warrant in Probe Tied to Tupac Shakur's Murder
Despite extensive investigations over the years, no arrests have been made in connection with the murder case. The incident remains one of the most high-profile unsolved mysteries in the history of hip-hop.
Authorities have executed a search warrant at a residence in the Las Vegas area as part of the ongoing investigation into the unsolved murder of renowned hip-hop artist Tupac Shakur.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) confirmed the search took place in Henderson, Nevada, on July 17, 2023, but declined to provide further details at this time.
"LVMPD can confirm a search warrant was served in Henderson, Nevada on July 17, 2023, as part of the ongoing Tupac Shakur homicide investigation," stated Las Vegas police. "We will have no further comment at this time."
Shakur, known for his influential contributions to the music industry, was fatally shot on September 7, 1996, in Las Vegas. He succumbed to his injuries six days later at the age of 25.

Biggie's murder brought public attention to the so-called "East Coast–West Coast hip hop rivalry," which many believe was one of the reasons that led to the deaths of the musicians, and called for reconciliation between the two sides. Rappers from both coasts, such as Snoop Dogg, Chuck D, attended a summit hosted by Louis Farrakhan in Chicago, Illinois, where they signed a unity pact that included a united tour and album.
Shakur achieved immense success during his short but remarkable career, selling over 75 million records worldwide. One of his most notable albums, "All Eyez on Me," earned diamond certification and featured the hit song "California Love (Remix)."
In recognition of his significant contributions to music, the artist was posthumously inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2017.
