Theories about the death of rapper Tupac Shakur or 2Pac has emerged, speculating that he is still alive. A recent news revealed that a retired police officer claimed that he was paid to fake Tupac's death.
While on a critical condition in the hospital, David Myers, reportedly claimed that the rapper paid him $1.5 million to fake the star's death back in 1996.
According to Myers, he wanted the world to know the truth before he dies, The Mirror reported. He said, “The world needs to know what I did. I’m ashamed that I let a price be put on my word and I cannot die without letting the world know.”
Suge Knight, allegedly help him according to the police officer and also added that he was paid $50,000 to get a double body for cremation.
But the theory is said to be untrue since the source of the story is from a hoax site suggesting that David Myers didn't exist, Metro reported.
Tupac died when he was shot multiple times in a drive-by shooting at the intersection of Flamingo Road and Koval Lane in Las Vegas, Nevada in 1996, when he was just 25 years old he incident happened. He had also been involved in a altercation with gang member Orlando "Baby Lane" Anderson.
While on his way to a night club, a car stopped beside their BMW and shot 14 bullets, hitting Tupac on the chest, pelvis, right hand, thigh and lungs. After days in the hospital, Tupac died, but it was said that no one saw him dead.
Many theories came stating that the rapper is still alive, saying that the photo taken prior to the incident has a different date, the discrepancy of the dead body's height and weight to that of Tupac, the seven released albums of the artists even after his death, and many others.
