Pop Smoke’s gravesite was recently found in a ruined state after someone broke his crypt and tried to pull out his casket. A few sources have captured pictures of the vandalized gravesite.
Pop Smoke’s gravesite on the outer wall of the mausoleum was found in a dilapidated condition, with the marble plaque cracked and broken. However, his name was still visible.
Drag marks were spotted on the ground, implying that vandals possibly robbed Pop Smoke’s tomb or were trying to drag something out.
An eyewitness revealed that a concrete slab that was likely sitting over Pop Smoke's casket was destroyed. He reported the incident to security. However, he saw a blank slab replacing the plaque when he returned, and caution tape was put on the site.
A lot of debris has been removed already, and there is no confirmation on the replacement of the plaque.
