Sporty
Theivz’s
member Marlon Brandoe was struck andkilled by a drunk driver in New York last night (May 10th)
around 3 a.m. According to Sporty associates, Brandoe was
walking out of a deli, when a drunk driver in a van ran
up on the curb. Brandoe, who was just 22 years-old, heroically
pushed his cousin out of harms way, only to be struck himself.
The impact crushed both of his legs, sending his blood pressure
plummeting. He died in route to the hospital. Brandoe recently
had a new born son, and was saved as a Christian and fellowshipped
on Sundays.
Brandoe and
the group enjoyed mainstream success with their songs "Cheapskates"
and an answer record to T.L.C.’s "Scrubs," which
was titled "Pigeons."
Brandoe will
be missed by family and friends alike, and we here at allhiphop.com
send our condolences. May Brandoe Rest In Peace.
