Travis Scott’s Houston mansion is surrounded by protesters in wake of Astroworld tragedy as he ramps up security at home
PROTESTERS surrounded Travis Scott's Houston mansion in the wake of the tragedy at his Astroworld festival after the rapper ramped up security at his home.
The rapper has maintained 24-hour security at his home and at least five security guards since the tragedy at his music festival.
Over the weekend angry protesters were seen holding signs that said "TRAVIS SCOTT LIVES HERE" or listing the people who should be "held accountable" for the nine deaths reported from the event.
Another sign read: “You Destroyed Lives. You Deserve Bankruptcy.”
Scott's legal team, headed by high-powered attorney Neal Manne, was spotted arriving at the $14million mansion.
It's believed that Kylie, 24, and their daughter Stormi, three, left Houston under the cover of darkness sometime on November 12.
"Kylie and her team waited until it was late and left the house in blacked-out cars heading for the airport," a source told The Sun.
"They didn't want anyone to see them," the source added.

Kylie and Stormi both attended the Astroworld festival, seated in a safe location away from the crowd.
Scott says he'll cover the funeral costs of the eight victims who died in the violent crowds of his Astroworld concert.
His announcement followed a rush of lawsuits from victims and their families.
Scott, whose real name is Jacques Bermon Webster II, will also refund the cost of all tickets.
A crowd of 50,000 showed up on Friday, November 5, for the festival which sold out within an hour of tickets going live in May.
But before 10pm, a ";mass casualty event" was underway, injuring hundreds and killing nine.
Scott released a statement on November 6 regarding the incident.
"I'm absolutely devastated by what took place last night," he wrote in a message posted on his Twitter page.
"My prayers go out to the families and all those impacted by what happened at Astroworld Festival," he wrote.
"Houston PD has my total support as they continue to look into the tragic loss of life.

"I am committed to working together with the Houston community to heal and support the families in need," he continued.
"Thank you to Houston PD, Fire Department and NRG Park for their immediate response and support," he concluded.
