Houston police announced Friday that a man has been arrested and charged in the death of Migos rapper Takeoff last month in downtown Houston.

Patrick Xavier Clark, 33, is charged with the murder of Kirshnik Khari Ball, also known as Takeoff.

Murder

One month after Migos rapper Takeoff was murdered in a downtown Houston bowling alley, we have been constantly seeking an answer from the Houston Police Department on who should be held responsible. On Friday, officers announced they will hold a briefing to discuss an update on the deadly Takeoff shooting.

The briefing is expected to take place at 2 p.m. from the departments headquarters on Travis Street.

Charged

The most recent update on the murder is from Wednesday, after Cameron Joshua, 22, was charged with two counts of felony in possession of a weapon stemming from the night of Takeoff’s death. Still, no one has been charged with the rapper’s murder.

Joshua appeared in court on Wednesday morning. During the appearance it was revealed that surveillance video and an anonymous witness telling police that Joshua had a firearm led police to link the man to the scene of the takeoff shooting.

“We believe that Cameron Joshua has been properly charged in this case,” prosecutor Matt Gilliam said. “We are continuing our investigation into Takeoff’s death.”

Shooting

Joshua’s attorney, Christopher Downey, said he believes if the district attorney thought Joshua was involved in the shooting, his charges would have been different.

“I have not seen anything to suggest that Cameron Joshua had anything to do with the shooting, that he discharged a firearm, that he caused his death or was even involved in it,” his attorney said.

Downey explained that since Joshua was already out on bail for possessing a fake ID, his bail hearing was rescheduled for next week. A judge will determine if the bond should be revoked in its entirety.
