A rapper named ‘Killah Dre’ allegedly killed a police sergeant who was arrested this Thursday in Texas. The police sergeant was killed in this horrific incident and the killer Dre fled the scene evading the traffic signal.
The accused identified with a rapper name ‘Killah Dre’ was 21-year-old Tavores Henderson and was taken into custody. He reportedly broke free from the police as he was being handcuffed. Authorities alleged that he fled in his vehicle and struck Sullivan, who later died at a hospital.
The suspect, who has a history of weapons charges and violence, is facing a felony murder charge in Sullivan’s death, but authorities have said it could be upgraded to capital murder.
Henderson is a Houston rapper whom The Associated Press says performed under the stage name “Killah Dre.” His Instagram account is filled with images of him flashing guns, wads of cash — and the middle finger. On YouTube, Henderson raps in one song alongside Soulja Boy in a video that has more than 700,000 views.
Henderson was accused of choking his ex-girlfriend and threatening to shoot her in November 2018, leading to a felony aggravated assault charge.
When he was released in July on a $50,000 bond related to that charge, Henderson posted a video on Instagram in which he flashed a fan of $20 bills right after he walked out of custody, saying: “You all thought the kid wasn’t coming home, huh.”
