Last month, the uncle of a member from the iconic hip-hop duo Outkast was fatally shot in a road rage incident on an Atlanta street.

Remoin Patton, 62, was discovered deceased by officers on the 200 block of Joseph E. Lowery Blvd NW. shortly after 5:30 p.m. on June 16, according to the Atlanta Police Department.

Patton’s nephew is Antwan “Big Boi” Patton, who, along with André Lauren Benjamin, famously known as André 3000, established the renowned group in 1992.

Remoin Patton was driving on the road that divides the Washington Hills and Vine City neighborhoods of Atlanta when he got into a verbal confrontation with a driver of another vehicle, police reported.

“During the altercation, Patton was shot, causing him to crash his vehicle into a vacant residence,” officials announced after the shooting.

Police responded to a 911 call and found Patton suffering from a gunshot wound to the back.

He was pronounced dead at the scene.

A person watching the home Patton crashed into says the 62-year-old was attempting to turn onto a nearby street but was hit in the back, causing the car to drive up onto the front porch of the home and into the front wall, according to WSBTV.

“I’m like, ‘What the heck happened to my place that I’m staying now?’” Chris Walker told the outlet. “I never thought it would be this property.”

A tarp was placed to block off the hole left behind by the crash, according to footage from the station.

Big Boi paid tribute to his uncle in Facebook posts.

“Long Live Uncle Moonie … Miss ya Unc,” the rapper wrote alongside a three-minute video filled with family pictures.

“Everybody who knows Uncle Moonie heart aches,” the “Hey Ya!” singer told WSBTV. “He wasn’t just ‘My’ Uncle, he was Unc to all that met him. A moment of rage has in totally pierced the heart of my family forever. May Uncle Moonie’s soul rest in peace.”

The alleged gunman, Jabryion Crumbley, turned himself over to officials at the Fulton County Jail on July 2.

The 18-year-old suspect was charged with murder, aggravated assault and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony.

He remains in jail without bail, according to jail records viewed by The Post.

Police had already charged 32-year-old Janisha Crumbley for her involvement in the shooting.

Janisha Crumbley was arrested and taken into custody by police during a traffic stop on June 20.

She was charged with hindering the apprehension of a felon.

Janisha Crumbley was released on a $30,000 surety bond, jail records show.
