Police say two men hopped out of the car and exchanged gunfire with Govan, 25, who was shot multiple times and robbed. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
The female passenger was transported to a local hospital with a single gunshot wound.
Police say officers found Christian Isaiah Williams, 24, in a nearby parking lot suffering from a gunshot wound to the abdomen. He was transported to a hospital, where he was charged with murder, according to Fox26 News. He remains hospitalized.
Police say evidence left at the crime scene linked Williams to the double shooting. The second gunman is still at large.
Govan was known for her collaborations with mentor Lil Uzi Vert on her rap songs “Lunchroom” and “Vegas.”
“I ain’t even gon’ lie, but this don’t even feel real to me. I'm just gon' be real,” the Eternal Atake rapper said. “Destinee always was on my hip everywhere I go. When it was time for her to go home, I used to be like, 'Bro, when are you coming back?' She be like, 'Dang, bro, I ain't even leave yet.'”
He continued, "I honestly don't know how to feel. I got close with her over a short span of time. Just her loyalty. She showed me a different type of loyalty. She had real loyalty to me." Watch Lil Uzi Vert speaking at the funeral below.
Houston rapper Lil Flip shouted Uzi out on Instagram for the kind words they conveyed at the homegoing service.
