Tyga received some devastating news on Wednesday. Kylie Jenner's on-and-off boyfriend's bodyguard and close friend Arlester Henderson [a.k.a Punch] was killed in a tragic accident in Los Angeles on March 30.

According to TMZ, Henderson was in a collision with another car while on the freeway. Following the crash, the 29-year-old stepped out of his vehicle to check on the other driver involved in the accident. He was then struck by a passing car and was pronounced dead at the scene.

The 26-year-old rapper's rep also told TMZ that he is “devastated, shocked and heartbroken” by the news.

Tyga paid tribute to his friend on Instagram Thursday, writing, "Rip Punch. I know you looking down from a better place."

Tyga's name has been buzzing the headlines lately, after Life & Style claimed that he and his 18-year-old girlfriend are about to become parents. The magazine reported that according to their source, Jenner is pregnant and started her weird cravings.

“She’s gained a little weight and she says she’s been having the weirdest cravings for Roscoe’s House of Chicken and Waffles and Krispy Kreme Doughnuts,” the source said.

The youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan is also apparently "obsessed" by baby names, nursery decorating and the baby's gender. "All [Kylie] can talk about is baby names," the source added. "Whether she’ll have a boy or a girl, how she’s going to decorate the nursery and the child’s wardrobe.”

Despite the baby reports, Jenner and Tyga have not announced any pregnancy news and their camps have not issued any statement about it.
