Rapper WizDaWizard found dead in Hallandale Beach

HALLANDALE BEACH, Florida – Hallandale Beach Police are investigating after a South Florida rapper was found dead outside a house early Friday morning.

Although police did not confirm his identity, people at the scene and on social media said the victim was Wisdom Williams, an artist from Broward County who had ties to Kodak Black and was called WizDaWizard.

Investigators say foul play is suspected.

The body was found around 6 a.m. outside a house on Northwest 6th Terrace and 9th Court. It is not known whether Williams was killed there or if his body was brought there.

Police said the victim grew up in this neighborhood, although he had not lived there recently.

Sky 10 flew over the scene where the body was covered with a yellow tarp, and around 100 people later gathered in search of answers.

At one point, a man walked through the police strip to see the body of a family member. The police attempted to arrest him and it briefly escalated before the police cleared the scene.

“When you think it could be a family member or a loved one, you would want to try and confirm it for yourself,” Hallandale Beach Police Captain Megan Jones said. “It was not something malicious or unwilling. It was just trying to get their own confirmation.

Members of the Broward Sheriff’s Office have come forward to help, and Jones said “the investigation is continuing.”

“There are going to be detectives who are going to contact family, friends, try to get more information,” she added. “We are appealing to the public at this time that if anyone has any information that could assist us in assisting a suspect, that would be greatly appreciated.”
