Officials indicated they are close to identifying the suspects involved in the killing of Jacksonville rapper Julio Foolio, who was fatally shot in Tampa on Sunday.
Julio Foolio, whose real name is Charles Jones, was celebrating his 26th birthday when he was shot in the parking lot of the Holiday Inn Tampa North at around 4:40 a.m.
Three others were injured in the shooting.
Community members in Tampa gathered at a town hall on Monday to voice concerns about violence in the neighborhood after the young rapper’s death.

Tampa Police Chief Lee Bercaw told the public that initial details show the groups involved in Sunday’s shooting were all from Jacksonville.
Jacksonville Sheriff T.K. Waters shared a similar update at a press conference on Monday, but he did not name the groups involved.
“These groups – I won’t name them, they know who they are – we’re not going to tolerate any retribution, any revenge. We’re going to watch. We’re going to pay attention to what’s going on,” Waters said.
“At this point that’s the only one we have tied to those Jacksonville groups,” Bercaw said.
Officials have not named any suspects or made any arrests yet.
Prior to his death, Jones expressed excitement and gratitude about his birthday on social media.
“God thank you for allowing me to see another Year & To celebrate another birthday,” Jones said on X.
But in April, Jones said there had been “multiple attempts on my life” on Instagram.
He also spoke about being shot at while leaving a recording studio on a podcast in 2022.
Waters reminded people of the serious nature of the incident, saying that it’s not a “game.”
“This is real life,” Waters said. “He has a mother, he has parents, siblings probably, friends. They have to deal with these kind of losses and it’s unfortunate.”
Officials are asking the public to share any videos or information related to the incident with the Tampa Police Department at 813-231-6130. The investigation continues as police try to determine who the suspects are and the events leading up to the deadly incident.
Foolio had over 950,00 monthly listeners on Spotify. Some of his most popular songs included Voo Doo, Dead Opps. Pt. 2, I Hate You I Love You and Play With Me.
This is the second tragic loss the hip-hop community has experienced this month. Up-and-coming rapper Enchanting died earlier this month from drug overdose.
She died shortly after being placed on life support.
She was also 26 years old. She had over 185,000 monthly listeners with popular songs like No Luv and Track & Field.
Departed
Fam is babyface.
On God, them nephews, is way too young, to soldier the way they are soldiering.
