AceShowbiz - On August 25, 2026, Outlawz member E.D.I. Mean, born Malcolm Greenidge, took the witness stand during the ongoing murder trial related to Tupac Shakur’s fatal shooting. His testimony detailed the harrowing events of the night of September 7, 1996, when the legendary rapper was violently attacked in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas.

E.D.I. Mean recounted being in a car just behind the black BMW that carried Tupac Shakur and Death Row Records CEO Marion “Suge” Knight after the Mike Tyson vs. Bruce Seldon boxing match at the MGM Grand. The group was en route to the 662 Club when the shooting occurred.

According to Greenidge’s testimony, a light-colored Cadillac pulled up alongside the BMW. He saw an arm holding a gun extended out of the Cadillac’s window, firing shots at Tupac and Suge Knight’s vehicle. The situation quickly escalated into chaos.

Greenidge described his immediate reaction as one of horror. When asked about what happened after the shooting, he said they attempted to exit their car to check on Tupac, but Suge Knight quickly made a U-turn and fled the scene. They followed the BMW until it stopped again, at which point Greenidge and others approached to assess Tupac’s condition.

He recalled that as they neared the car, Tupac warned him to get down, fearing more gunfire. Moments later, Greenidge found himself facing a shotgun aimed directly at him. The situation was extremely tense, with police arriving shortly after and ordering everyone to get on the ground at gunpoint.

Despite witnessing the attack, E.D.I. Mean testified that he could not identify the shooter or shooters involved in the assault. The shooting left Tupac Shakur critically wounded, and he died seven days later on September 13, 1996, from the injuries sustained that night.

The trial currently underway accuses Duane “Keffe D” Davis of orchestrating the murder of Tupac Shakur. If convicted, Davis faces a life sentence in prison. The proceedings are expected to continue for approximately six weeks.

Malcolm Greenidge’s testimony offers a rare and personal perspective on one of hip-hop’s most infamous tragedies. His vivid recollection of that night underscores the chaotic and violent atmosphere surrounding Tupac’s final hours.
