According to reports, popular Toronto artist Houdini was shot and killed in what local police are characterizing as a "brazen" attack in the city's Entertainment District. When officers arrived on the scene around 4 PM, they found the 21-year-old rapper suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. In addition to Houdini, a 27-year-old woman and a 15-year-old boy were also wounded in the shootout and were in critical conditions after the most recent reports.
Authorities confirmed that Houdini died from his injuries around 6:30 PM. Toronto Police Chief Mark Saunders told reporters that all signs point to this being a targeted shooting and that the suspects were waiting on Houdini for roughly 40 minutes prior to the attack. “It turns out the suspect vehicle, based on the evidence we have right now, was waiting for about forty minutes for the occupants of another vehicle to arrive to their vehicle,” said Saunders. “When they did, the suspect vehicle made a U-turn, came out, and started firing at this group of individuals.”
Tory Lanez took the news hard. He took to Instagram and posted a series of pictures with his fallen friend with the caption, “I’m trying , and I can’t fight the tears from falling .. i can’t even find the words for a speech right now .. YALL TOOK MY F****** NIGGA AND ALL HE WANTED TO DO WAS LIVE !!!!!! #RIP Houdini 4 Ever!”
