The brother of Lil Durk was shot and killed outside a strip club near Chicago over the weekend.
Now more details are emerging surrounding the fatal shooting. According to a report from WGN-TV, Dontay Banks Jr., better known as OTF DThang, was shot outside Club O, a strip club in Harvey, Ill., just after 12:20 a.m. Sunday (June 6). Banks was shot in the head and died at the scene.
