Tupac Shakur's Last Words Before He Died Were "Fuck You" To A Cop

Tupac Shakur didn't like cops and he was defiant until the end. On the night of September 7, 1996, a gunman fired 13 shots into a BMW being driven by Suge Knight on the Las Vegas strip. The shots came through the passenger door where Tupac was seated. He was hit by four bullets

Former Las Vegas Metropolitan PD officer Chris Carroll was the first cop on the scene, Things were chaotic when he got there. Suge Knight was bleeding profusely from a bullet fragment that was lodged in his head. The former Death Row Records was screaming Pac's name. After Carroll pulled Tupac out of the car he asked the rapper who shot him, but Pac ignored him and instead tried to speak with Suge.

Carroll told VegasSeven that when Tupac finally spoke to him he only said two words..

“So I’m looking at Tupac, and he’s trying to yell back at Suge, and I’m asking him, ‘Who shot you? What happened? Who did it?’ And he was just kind of ignoring me. He was making eye contact with me here and there, but he’s trying to yell at Suge. And I kept asking over and over, ‘Who did this? Who shot you?’ And he basically kept ignoring me. And then I saw in his face, in his movements, all of a sudden in the snap of a finger, he changed. And he went from struggling to speak, being noncooperative, to an ‘I’m at peace’ type of thing. Just like that.

“He went from fighting to ‘I can’t do it.’ And when he made that transition, he looked at me, and he’s looking right in my eyes. And that’s when I looked at him and said one more time, ‘Who shot you?’

“He looked at me and he took a breath to get the words out, and he opened his mouth, and I thought I was actually going to get some cooperation. And then the words came out: ‘Fuck you.’

“After that, he started gurgling and slipping out of consciousness. At that point, an ambulance showed up, and he went into unconsciousness.
