Migos star Takeoff has died, TMZ is reporting.

The American rapper, who was born Kirshnik Khari Ball, was shot in a bowling alley in Houston, Texas. He was 28.

He was one third of hip-hop group Migos, with fellow rappers Quavo and Offset. Quavo, full name Quavious Keyate Marshall, 31, is Takeoff's uncle and was also at the bowling alley when the shooting occurred. Quavo is also the cousin of Offset, 30, whose full name is Kiari Kendrell Cephus.

"Law enforcement sources, and multiple witnesses, tell us the fatal incident went down shortly after 2.30am," TMZ reported. "That's when cops got the call for a man shot at a bowling alley called 810 Billiards & Bowling Houston."

TMZ has been sent footage of the aftermath of the shooting.

Houston police tweeted: "2 other victims taken in private vehicles to hospitals. Media partners: We are not releasing an identity of the deceased victim until his family is notified & ID verified by Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences."

Takeoff was born in Lawrenceville, Georgia, and grew up alongside Offset and Quavo in Gwinnett County near Atlanta.

Before his death, Takeoff and Quavo were working on new music without Offset after a falling out. Offset had been working on solo material.

In May, DJ Akademiks told TMZ that while there may be "beef" and it was "a tense situation", he didn't think it would "escalate to a full-scale split" of Migos, claiming to have spoken to Offset.

Migos released their debut single Versace in 2013, and have had four Billboard Hot 100 top 10 songs, Bad and Boujee, MotorSport, Stir Fry and Walk It Talk It. They have collaborated with artists such as Drake, Nicki Minaj and Cardi B.

Tributes to Takeoff

Rapper King Staccz tweeted that his "heart is broken", adding: "I know offset wish him and takeoff would’ve put all that migos drama to the side, I feel for him the most right now."

English rapper Bugsey paid tribute to Takeoff on Twitter, writing: "1st of the month n this the kinda sad news ... Migos was such a big part of my teenage life and as a young adult, man resonated wid Takeoff so much cuz he was the youngest one in the group, tht whole era was so inspiring to me I rah cant believe this."

Social media figure Corey Borner wrote: "Migos ain't never gon be the same".

Fourth Arab Economic and Social Development Summit

As he spoke, Mr Aboul Gheit repeatedly referred to the need to tackle issues affecting the welfare of people across the region both in terms of preventing conflict and in pushing development.
Lebanon is scheduled to host the fourth Arab Economic and Social Development Summit in January that will see regional leaders gather to tackle the challenges facing the Middle East. The last such summit was held in 2013. Assistant Secretary-General Hossam Zaki told The National that the Beirut Summit “will be an opportunity for Arab leaders to discuss solely economic and social issues, the conference will not focus on political concerns such as Palestine, Syria or Libya". He added that its slogan will be “the individual is at the heart of development”, adding that it will focus on all elements of human capital.

Ziina users can donate to relief efforts in Beirut

Ziina users will be able to use the app to help relief efforts in Beirut, which has been left reeling after an August blast caused an estimated $15 billion in damage and left thousands homeless. Ziina has partnered with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees to raise money for the Lebanese capital, co-founder Faisal Toukan says. “As of October 1, the UNHCR has the first certified badge on Ziina and is automatically part of user's top friends' list during this campaign. Users can now donate any amount to the Beirut relief with two clicks. The money raised will go towards rebuilding houses for the families that were impacted by the explosion.”

Types of policy

Term life insurance: this is the cheapest and most-popular form of life cover. You pay a regular monthly premium for a pre-agreed period, typically anything between five and 25 years, or possibly longer. If you die within that time, the policy will pay a cash lump sum, which is typically tax-free even outside the UAE. If you die after the policy ends, you do not get anything in return. There is no cash-in value at any time. Once you stop paying premiums, cover stops.

Whole-of-life insurance: as its name suggests, this type of life cover is designed to run for the rest of your life. You pay regular monthly premiums and in return, get a guaranteed cash lump sum whenever you die. As a result, premiums are typically much higher than one term life insurance, although they do not usually increase with age. In some cases, you have to keep up premiums for as long as you live, although there may be a cut-off period, say, at age 80 but it can go as high as 95. There are penalties if you don’t last the course and you may get a lot less than you paid in.

Critical illness cover: this pays a cash lump sum if you suffer from a serious illness such as cancer, heart disease or stroke. Some policies cover as many as 50 different illnesses, although cancer triggers by far the most claims. The payout is designed to cover major financial responsibilities such as a mortgage or children’s education fees if you fall ill and are unable to work. It is cost effective to combine it with life insurance, with the policy paying out once if you either die or suffer a serious illness.

Income protection: this pays a replacement income if you fall ill and are unable to continue working. On the best policies, this will continue either until you recover, or reach retirement age. Unlike critical illness cover, policies will typically pay out for stress and musculoskeletal problems such as back trouble.
