Rapper Lil Durk was arrested Friday in a murder-for-hire plot near the Beverly Center in Los Angeles, federal authorities said.

The rapper, whose legal name is Durks Banks, conspired with five others to murder rival rapper TD, according to the Justice Department.

The attack resulted in a family member of the rival being shot dead at a gas station near the Beverly Center mall in Los Angeles on August 19, 2022.

Banks is the leader of the Chicago-based rap collective Only the Family, or OTF.

According to the complaint filed Thursday evening, law enforcement believes the group also committed violence at Banks’ direction to maintain its status in the OTF.

The feud stemmed from a murder in which a TB associate reportedly shot and killed an OTF rapper named Dayvon Bennett, a close friend of Banks, in November 2020, according to court documents.

In response to Bennett’s killing, several OTF members allegedly fired at least 18 shots at TB’s vehicle, killing a victim identified in court documents as “SR,” a family member traveling with tuberculosis

After law enforcement arrested five other defendants in Chicago and executed search warrants, the FBI learned that Banks had been booked on three international flights scheduled to leave the United States on Thursday.

Investigators arrested him near a departure airport in Miami.

“The arrest of Mr. Banks as he attempted to leave the United States is further evidence of the extensive reach of the FBI and our extraordinary partners at the Los Angeles Police Department,” said FBI Assistant Director Akil Davis in Los Angeles Field Office. “As you go about your life thinking you’ve “got away scot-free,” the FBI is investigating the facts that will doom you.”

Banks remains in federal custody and the defendants are expected to be arraigned in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles.

If convicted, Banks and the five defendants charged in the separate indictment each face a statutory maximum sentence of life in federal prison.
