Police in Nevada are still actively investigating the unsolved 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur and recently executed a search warrant, CBS News reports. In a statement, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said, “LVMPD can confirm a search warrant was served in Henderson, Nevada, on July 17, 2023, as part of the ongoing Tupac Shakur homicide investigation. We will have no further comment at this time.”

Shakur was shot in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas in September 1996. He died from his wounds in a hospital six days later. No arrests have ever been made in the murder case, but the state does not have a statute of limitations on homicides.

In 2018, USA Network aired the show Unsolved about the murders of Tupac Shakur and the Notorious B.I.G.
