Authorities removed more than two dozen items from a Henderson home related to the investigation of the 1996 shooting death of the rapper Tupac Skakur, including computers, iPads, bullet cartridges and evidence of street gang involvement, according to copy of the warrant obtained by the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
The warrant also requested photos, books, documents and other items including writings about Shakur, the document states.
Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department requested the warrant on Saturday and obtained permission from a District Court judge to search the residence of Duane Keith Davis, 60, on Maple Shade Street in Henderson, based on the document.
Items taken by investigators from Davis’ abode included a desktop computer, four laptops, three iPads, an iPhone, a 500 GB hard drive, a tablet, a USB drive, 11 .40 caliber cartridges, a copy of Davis’ co-written book “Compton Street Legend,” and a Vibe magazine article on Shakur.

The warrant was executed at the home on Monday, the document stated. Neighbors have said police arrived at the home that evening.
