The cameras confirmed what we already knew, that X had been shot at point-blank range.
Initial suspect Williams was charged with first-degree murder while his arrest warrant included accused him of killing the rapper ‘from a premeditated design’.
The Broward County Fire Department said the rapper was rushed to hospital. Other witnesses at the scene claim to have heard multiple shots fired.
GettyDispatch audio initially claimed the incident was a ‘possible drive-by shooting and the alleged shooters exited the scene in a black Dodge Journey’. The car has now been confirmed as a black Dodge Journey, with dark tint and black wheels.
According to the dispatch call, the suspects were described as two black males in hoodies, with the shooter wearing a red mask, TMZ reports.
The most damning evidence against Williams was his bright orange sandals which were allegedly visible on CCTV and police reported finding photos of him wearing the same or similar sandals on social media.
