Arrest is made in Florida shooting death of rapper XXXTentacion
Authorities did not give a motive in announcing the arrest, but had said the shooting was apparently a robbery attempt

Authorities in Florida have arrested a suspect in the killing of rising rap star XXXTentacion, who was fatally shot in his BMW electric car as he left an upscale motorcycle dealership in Deerfield Beach.
Dedrick Williams, 22, of Pompano Beach, Florida, was arrested on Wednesday night, the Broward Sheriff’s Office said on Thursday morning.
Jahseh Dwayne Onfroy, 20, who went by the stage name pronounced “Ex Ex Ex ten-ta-see-YAWN,” was gunned down on Monday, bringing a violent end to a brief music career that was marked by violence and arrests.

Authorities said the rapper was ambushed by two suspects. They did not give a motive in announcing Williams’ arrest but had previously said the shooting was apparently a robbery attempt.
XXXTentacion’s lawyer, David Bogenschutz, said on Tuesday that investigators told him the rapper had visited a bank shortly before the shooting and possibly withdrew cash to buy a motorcycle at Riva Motorsports.
