Authorities have made an arrest in the fatal shooting of rapper Takeoff.

The Houston Police Department Chief Troy Finner announced in a news conference on Friday that Patrick Xavier Clark, 33, had been charged with murder after being arrested on the east side of Houston, Tex. Thursday evening.

Houston Police Sgt. Michael Burrow said investigators used ballistic evidence, physical evidence and shooting reconstruction to identify Clark as the “lethal shooter in the case.”

Additionally, police have also arrested another man — Cameron Joshua, 22 — who was charged with the unlawful carrying of a weapon in connection to the shooting.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Clark’s bail has been at $1 million.

If he is released on bail, prosecutors are asking he be placed under house arrest and prohibited from talking to Takeoff’s family, J Prince Jr. and his family, as well as Shakur Stevenson and his employees.

Takeoff — whose real name is Kirsnick Khari Ball — was shot and killed following a dispute in a Houston bowling alley on Nov. 1. He was 28 years old.

Quavo — Takeoff’s uncle and Migos bandmate — was present during the shooting and could be seen on camera getting into a verbal altercation with others before the shots rang out.

The “Stir Fry” rapper died due to “gunshot wounds of head and torso into the arm,” according to a report from the Harris County Medical Examiner. The manner of death was ruled as a homicide.
