Yesterday, Future’s former bodyguard, Michael Tanner Phillips, 27, was shot and killed in Jonesboro, Georgia. The horrific incident took place around 1:30 in Phillips’ townhouse, his wife was home when he was killed, but didn’t witness it. The gunman fled in a vehicle, but at this time their is no description of the perpetrator nor the car. Lt. Frank Thomas, of the Clayton County Police Department stated, “Some of the neighbors heard some arguing and some gunshots. We are still interviewing them and trying to piece together what happened.”
A representative from Future’s team confirmed that Phillips hadn’t worked for Future since 2011. However, his neighbors stated that he was recently working as an organist in a local church. Phillips and his wife were expecting a child together and had recently thrown a baby shower.
Condolences to the Phillips’ family…
