Within a few hours of the postings, at around 6.10 pm, there was a shooting incident near Houston’s River Oaks neighborhood, and the thriving artist lost his life.
According to Houston police chief Troy Finner, BTB Savage was dead at the scene before EMS arrived. However, forensic pathology studies are still pending, and the exact identity of the individual killed has yet to be released.

BTB Savage’s career was just taking off, and he had recently appeared on podcasts like Vlad TV and Off the Porch to discuss the incident where he killed another individual in self-defense. It appears that the killing took place after someone tried to rob BTB Savage at his San Antonio home while asking him for a feature. Soon this interaction turned violent, and Savage’s girlfriend shot the individual to death. BTB Savage felt proud of his girlfriend’s work and then made photos about the killing for social media- a major league Fatal Error.
If the victim is indeed BTB Savage, it shows that bragging and taunting the enemy on social media is never a good idea, especially if one resides in the same city/state.
