Atlanta rap star Takeoff, a member of the Migos, has been shot and killed in a Houston bowling alley called Billiards & Bowling around 2:30 AM Tuesday, TMZ reports.

Takeoff's uncle and fellow Migos member Quavo was present during the shooting but was not injured. Takeoff was 28. Pierre "Pee" Thomas, CEO of Migos' label Quality Control shared a plea for peace following the fatal shooting: "I want our community to remember that we don’t have to continue to result to violence every time there is a disagreement.
