The report reveals that Precious was driving T.I.'s 2013 Dodge Avenger with Kairi Chapman, the rapper’s grandniece when she suffered an asthma attack.

Kairi told the police that Precious passed out at the wheel and veered into a telephone pole. The officer who responded to the situation revealed that Precious was unconscious when he got there. She was breathing but was also beginning to foam at the mouth.
