AceShowbiz - A new video has surfaced of an aftermath of the fatal shooting that killed Foolio. Published on Sunday, June 23, the footage shows the devastating scene in the wake of the violent attack earlier on Sunday morning.
Obtained by TMZ, the video was taken just after the gunfire took place. Police swarmed the scene while paramedics rushed around tending to those allegedly wounded in the incident. Some victims can be seen being wheeled away in stretchers and one person seemed to be in pain as the paramedics rolled them away from the Holiday Inn towards an ambulance.
Some forensic officers were seen inspecting a black sedan sitting out front of the hotel, likely to collect any evidence they can find from the scene. The car was riddled with bullet holes, with the windshield completely shot up.
Cops were also examining another car that looked like it didn't have a scratch on it. It's unclear how this particular car is connected to the shootout.
As reported before, Foolio, also known as Julio Foolio, was staying at a Holiday Inn hotel in Tampa when he was ambushed. The incident occurred in the parking lot just before 5 A.M. ET. He was only 26 years old and just celebrated his birthday two days before he was killed. Foolio initially stayed at an Airbnb to host a pool party with friends and fans, but was forced to leave the location due to overcrowding and moved to the hotel where he was shot at.
His lawyer Lewis Fusco confirmed his passing as saying, "Yes, I have been his attorney for many years. He was shot and killed in Tampa. I cannot make any statements at this time other than confirming he was killed outside of a Holiday Inn hotel while celebrating his birthday in Tampa this weekend."
The lawyer added in a statement posted on Instagram, "We will not be making any additional statements until further notice. Please respect his family during this difficult time. Rest in peace @julio_foolio."
