Snellville Shooting: Georgia Rapper T-Hood Fatally Shot at 33 — One Detained, Investigation Underway
My name is Kai Montgomery, and yes, I am forced to deliver news nobody wanted to read today. Look, I do not enjoy this, but facts matter.
Tevin Hood, known professionally as T-Hood, was shot in his Snellville, Georgia home and later died from his injuries on Friday, according to Gwinnett County police and local reports. Responding officers say first responders provided aid at the scene and transported a man to a nearby hospital, where he succumbed to his wounds. Authorities have classified the incident as a homicide and have detained one person for questioning as part of an ongoing investigation. The motive remains unclear at this time.
Before you scroll past, yes, this is the same T-Hood who made waves in the Southern rap scene with tracks like “READY 2 GO,” “Big Booty” and “Perculator.” He was 33 years old. His mother, Yulanda Hood, confirmed to reporters that the victim was her son and said he lived at the residence where the shooting occurred. She also denied social media chatter suggesting there had been a party at the house when the shooting took place.
Gwinnett County police officers were called to unincorporated Snellville after reports of a dispute that turned violent. According to law enforcement statements, one person was detained and is being interviewed; investigators are treating the case as a homicide while they work to piece together a timeline and motive. No charges have been announced publicly as of the latest updates.
T-Hood had remained active online, posting to Instagram about a week before his death, and had carved out a regional following in the Southern rap circuit. Local media and law enforcement updates confirm the basic sequence: dispute at a Snellville home, shooting, emergency response, transport to hospital, death, and an ongoing homicide investigation.
Let us state the obvious: violent deaths destroy families and communities and leave more questions than answers. In this case, the specifics that matter most to investigators—who fired the fatal shots, why the dispute escalated, whether drugs, money, or old grudges played a role—are still unresolved. Gwinnett County police will likely release more details as interviews continue and forensic work progresses.
For now, sources close to the scene and law enforcement briefings confirm that one person is in custody for questioning and that the case is under active investigation. This is corroborated by police statements and local news outlets reporting from the Snellville area. Fans and colleagues have begun posting tributes and asking for answers online, while family members grieve privately.
Expect updates from Gwinnett County police as they sort through witness statements, phone records, and potential surveillance footage. If charges are filed, prosecutors will release an indictment or warrant details; until then, treat arrest reports as preliminary.
Closing note, because someone has to be blunt: losing a life in your early thirties over a dispute is tragic and preventable. Keep an eye on official police releases and verified reporting for the real facts, not the gossip. And yes, I will keep you posted whether you like it or not.
Witty sign-off: Nobody wins when bullets do the talking; that’s the one thing even I can say without rolling my eyes.
