A newly surfaced T-Hood police report has revealed that Atlanta rapper T-Hood, whose real name was Tevin Hood, was shot at a gas station just months before his tragic death at his home, raising questions about a possible connection between the two violent incidents. The 33-year-old artist, known for his vibrant contributions to the Southern rap scene, was killed in a domestic dispute in Snellville, Georgia, leaving fans and loved ones searching for answers in a tragedy that echoes the recent death of Chicago rapper Munna Duke. On April 12, 2024, at around 7:00 p.m., Gwinnett County police responded to a 911 call from a residence in the 3900 block of Lee Road in Snellville.
Officers found Hood suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Despite efforts by first responders, he was pronounced dead at a local hospital. Authorities detained one person at the scene for questioning, but no arrests or charges have been confirmed, and the investigation remains active.
Police have described the incident as a domestic-related shooting, though the exact motive is still under investigation. The earlier gas station shooting, detailed in a T-Hood police report that came to light on April 20, 2024, adds a troubling dimension to his story. While specific details about the incident, such as the exact date, location, or extent of injuries, remain undisclosed, it reportedly occurred a few months before his death, likely between January and March 2024.
Given Hood’s ties to Snellville and Atlanta, the gas station shooting likely took place in the greater Atlanta area. Authorities have not confirmed whether this earlier incident is directly linked to the fatal Gwinnett County shooting, but the timing has sparked speculation about ongoing conflicts in the rapper’s life, similar to how other rap feuds have escalated into deadly violence. T-Hood, celebrated for tracks like “READY 2 GO,” “Big Booty,” and “Perculator,” was a rising figure in Atlanta’s underground hip-hop scene.
His music resonated with fans for its raw energy and authenticity. His final Instagram post, shared a week before his death, featured a comedic video promoting his song “Grave Diggerz,” filmed in a cemetery, which some fans now view as hauntingly prophetic. Social media has been flooded with tributes and speculation since news of the Tevin Hood death broke.
Music producer Deedotwill shared a heartfelt message, saying,
“We was just on the phone all day, I can’t believe you are gone. Rest in peace, T-Hood, I love you, brother.”
Fans have echoed similar sentiments, mourning the loss of a talented artist whose career was cut short. Rumors have also circulated online, particularly about Hood’s girlfriend, Kelsie Frost, daughter of Atlanta hip-hop artists Kirk and Rasheeda Frost.
Some unverified claims suggest Frost’s family was involved in the shooting, but she has publicly denied these allegations. In an emotional Instagram post, Frost wrote,
“I don’t even have time to grieve or say my respects in the right manner because I am defending myself, being attacked by people who are creating weird and sick rumors.”
She emphasized her love for Hood and condemned the violence.
