T-Hood was shot six times, including four wounds to the back, according to a newly released autopsy report, prompting his family to hire legal counsel as police continue investigating the fatal shooting at a home in Snellville.

The 33-year-old Atlanta rapper, born Tevin Hood, was found dead on August 9 at a residence on Lee Road in Gwinnett County. Four days later, Gwinnett County Police said the case was being reviewed as a possible self-defense situation. Authorities confirmed 24-year-old Ky Frost, the son of Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta personalities Rasheeda and Kirk Frost, was involved in the incident but has not been named as a suspect.

The Gwinnett County Medical Examiner’s report, released this week, listed six gunshot wounds to Hood’s body, including hits to his upper and lower back, legs, abdomen and one to the front of his leg. The manner of death was ruled a homicide.

In response to the findings, Hood’s family retained an attorney and issued a statement addressing the circumstances of his death.

“Tevin Hood was a devoted father and a supportive co-parent. He was deeply involved in his daughter’s life, and to her, he was the very best dad. His loss leaves an unimaginable void,” the family’s attorney said.

“We recognize that the criminal investigation is ongoing, and we will allow the Gwinnett County Police Department to continue doing their job. The family is truly grateful for the effort and commitment law enforcement has shown and will continue to show throughout the process.

What we do know at this time is that Tevin Hood was shot from the back four times. That fact is both deeply troubling and heartbreaking to his loved ones. And there was only one person left to tell their side of the story. There are still more facts to uncover, but what remains certain is that justice must be served for Tevin’s daughter – whether through criminal accountability, civil action or both.”
