Wallace was gunned down after leaving an industry event, though no drugs or alcohol were found in Wallace's system. To this day, no arrests have ever been made, despite the shooting coming months after the death of Tupac Shakur, Wallace's East Coast-West Coast rap rival. The autopsy report had been sealed at the request of detectives.
