On March 9, 1997, Biggie Smalls was shot and killed after leaving an industry event in Los Angeles.
According to reports, on March 8, BIG presented an award to Toni Braxton at the 11th Annual Soul Train Awards in LA and there was some booing in the crowd. At the time, there was a huge beef between East Coast and West Coast rapper's including BIG and Tupac.
Biggie attended a 'Vibe' after-party for the event at the Peterson Automotive Museum, where the guest list included various members of the Bloods and Crips street gangs.

In the early morning, around 12:45 a.m, BIG made his exit from the party in a SUV. The truck came to a stop only 50 yards away from the location at a red light, when a Black Chevy Impala pulled up alongside it, and shots rang out.
Four bullets struck Biggie, and he was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where doctors attempted to save the rapper's life. He has pronounced dead at 1:15 a.m. He was 24 years old.
According to his autopsy, the fatal shot entered through his right hip and struck his colon, liver, heart, and left lung before stopping in his left shoulder.
