Canadian Rapper Drake is being encouraged by detectives to use his social media to help track the gunmen who murdered his close friend Anthony “Fif” Soares.
Cops are now hunting down the two men who gunned Soares down outside the foyer of an apartment building in Toronto, Canada, and they believe the ‘Hotline Bling’ hit maker could help them in their murder investigation.
“Drake was a friend of his… Many of the family members have met Drake and I certainly would encourage him, through his tweets, to encourage anybody within the community to come forward with regards to any information they may have that might assist in solving his friend’s murder,” Detective Sergeant Gary Giroux told the New York Daily News.
Police have also released a graphic video of the moment Soares was shot multiple times. He was rushed to hospital after the shooting for emergency surgery but died there.
Following Fif’s murder Drizzy took to Instagram to paid tribute to his late friend, “RIP to one of our family members…our brother… I still can’t even believe this morning was real. It was a honor to have shared years together and I will always keep your memory alive Forever Fif.”
