Officials have said a struggle ensued when the rapper’s sports car was blocked by another vehicle, two masked gunmen approached and shot XXXTentacion multiple times.
The gunmen fled with a Louis Vuitton bag containing 50,000 US dollars.
Newsome was booked into Broward County’s Main Jail on charges of first-degree murder and robbery with a deadly weapon.
