Police at the scene of the initial investigation said the shooting was believed to be targeted.

On March 30, Houston police responded to a drive-by shooting in the 4600 block of San Felipe at Mid Lane, where they found Gentry with a gunshot wound in the parking garage. He died at the scene.
Witnesses told police two people sped off in a black Subaru SUV.
Gentry’s mother, Bernita Ward, said she tried to warn her son and believes violence and retaliation led to his murder. She said her son’s online persona is not how she knew him.
“I never refer to him at BTB Savage, the Instagram mogul,” Ward said. “I am not one of those parents to cover up your child’s lifestyle.”
To her, he was just Darrell Gentry, his legal name. According to Ward, Gentry served in the military for four years and was a father to a 4-year-old son, which she is most proud of.
