Anthony "Big Jook" Mims shared an "eerie" post on his social media page before he was shot and killed.
Yo Gotti's brother, Big Jook, was gunned down on Saturday, January 13, outside Perignons Restaurant and Event Center in Memphis, Tenn., after attending a funeral in the area. Another man, who was said to be in critical condition, was transported to a local hospital while Big Jook was eventually pronounced dead, per Fox13.

Prior to the shooting, Big Jook was seen in a viral video as he attended the funeral of Eric Bovan. He posted a photo of his "legendary" friend on his Instagram Story and wrote, "RIP UNK LAS VEGAS ERIC."
He also posted a slideshow on Instagram featuring two photos of himself and a hair-raising caption to warn his followers.
"They don't want to face you they wanna snake you," he wrote. "Stay alert 2 stay alive watch your back at all times... Put snakes on the plate and eat great."
Videos and photos of Big Jook circulated online after the shooting, showing Yo Gotti's sibling bleeding while on the floor.
Colleagues and fans, including Gotti's CMG signees Big Boogie and 10Percent, have since shared their messages online and confirmed Big Jook's death. Others called out the social media users who reportedly made fun of his passing.
One said, "Death ain't nothing to joke about I wish both sides could just get along. This is another blow for Memphis smdh."
"Even though you did all dissing, I have compassion for you," another shared on Instagram. "May God have mercy on your soul. May he uplift the good you did and devalue the bad. I'm team nobody. The deaths gotta stop. Stop the cycle."
