A man among those who witnessed the shooting of Migos rapper Takeoff is facing gun possession charges, but his lawyer contends he is by no means responsible for killing the Atlanta-based musician.
Police identified Cameron Joshua, 22, as having attended the private downtown Houston party where Takeoff, whose real name is Kirsnick Khari Ball, was shot and killed early Nov. 1. Investigators believe he was among the dozens who witnessed his death outside the third-floor 810 Billiards & Bowling business, prosecutors on Wednesday said.
Joshua’s defense attorney Christopher Downey attempted to quash swirling rumors, mostly fueled by social media speculation, that his client played a role in the rapper’s death. Takeoff was part of the trio behind songs such as “Bad and Boujee” with relatives Quavo and Offset. Downey did not elaborate on Joshua’s ties to the party that Takeoff attended but said he was aware that a skirmish happened after a purported dice game. He was not sure if Joshua participated in the game.
