HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The man accused of shooting & killing a rapper in Houston is in custody.

Montrel Burley, 40, is charged with the murder of Darrell Gentry, 26, aka "BTB Savage."

HPD said Burley surrendered to authorities on Tuesday.

Court records made public on Monday show Burley was under arrest & in custody the day after the deadly shooting, but was released.

Burley was reportedly arrested & charged with narcotics possession during a traffic stop in New Braunfels on March 31.

He was a passenger in the vehicle that police believe was used in the shooting on March 30. Court records show he had rented it. When police started asking Burley about the vehicle, he requested an attorney & ended the interview. It's unclear how or why he was released.

Documents show Burley was a close friend & fellow gang member of Omar Richardson. In an interview days before his murder, Gentry described how his girlfriend shot Richardson in self-defense during a robbery at their home in San Antonio in February. Police had apparently said the shooting was justified.

On social media, Gentry posted photos of himself at the bloody crime scene just hours before he was killed in Houston.

In court records, police tied the 2 murders together, citing retaliation.

On the day of Gentry's murder, police identified the suspect vehicle as a black Subaru Outback. They tracked it via license plate cameras to Burley's address in New Braunfels & when they searched it after the traffic stop, they found a shell casing similar to what was found at the crime scene in Houston. Cell phone data on the day of the murder show Burley's phone in the area at the time of the shooting in Houston.

According to a police, they did not have the cell phone data when Burley was in custody.

Police believe an unknown second suspect was involved.
