Toronto rapper Houdini killed in downtown shooting

Toronto rapper Houdini killed in downtown shooting

This year just keeps getting worse. We just got word out of Toronto that budding rap star Houdini was killed today in an Entertainment District downtown shooting.

Roughly two hours ago comments starting appearing on Houdini’s latest Instagram post asking if he was ok and some people leaving “RIP” messages. Now, sadly, the news has been confirmed by multiple sources including 6ixBuzzTV who premiered Hou’s recent “VV’s” single with KILLY.

Toronto media has already reported on a shooting that occurred in the city at King Street and Blue Jays Way sometime after 4 p.m. “Officers arrived at the scene to find a male victim suffering from gunshot wounds. Two other victims were located a short time later,” CP24 reported.

Houdini sadly passed away of his injuries in the hospital around 6:30 p.m.

Rest In Peace Houdini
