The first cop on the scene of Tupac's shooting has revealed the legendary rapper's last words before he slipped out of consciousness.
Chris Carroll, now retired, recalled in an interview with the Mail Online how he knows Tupac is dead having watched him die before his very eyes.
Although he wasn't declared dead until six days later, on 13 September 1996, Carroll is sure all the conspiracy theories he's heard over the years are complete bullshit.
And that includes the most recent 'sighting' of Tupac after a supposed selfie of the rapper emerged in a YouTube video earlier this week.

Carroll, 51, recalled of the 25-year-old's death: "I still find it astonishing that fans and people believe that Tupac is alive.
"'There were about five cars in the entourage and as they began getting out of the cars I knew these were not normal citizens.
"In the middle of this chaos was Suge, who you cannot miss, as he is this huge figure, very tall, wide and looking to come towards me.
"I told him to stay down and approached the passenger door, where Tupac was slumped, but moving slightly, seemingly looking forward through the windscreen.
"Tupac just flopped out onto my left arm as I hadn't realised he was leaning against the door.
"Tupac was losing his fight, but he kept looking at Suge, who was growing more frantic and screaming at him.
"'I asked him 'Who shot you? Who did this? What happened?' repeatedly.
"Tupac didn't even acknowledge that I was talking to him, as he was staring at Suge over my shoulder.
"Then he finally moved his line of sight from Suge, glared at me, mustered the energy to take as deep as breath as possible and said, 'Fuck you'."

Having taken four bullets, Carroll was convinced Tupac was never coming back from his injuries.
Since that day, Carroll has been involuntarily involved in various conspiracies including that he was in on the shooting and replaced Tupac's body with that of a fake during the commotion to help the rapper escape to a secret life.
Another, and the most hurtful for him, is that he himself was the shooter.
I think the vast majority of us can agree that Tupac is dead. And may he rest in peace.
