Wyslert Fraise, a 36-year-old African American male, was tragically shot and killed on December 17, 2019, in North Lauderdale, Florida. The incident occurred early in the morning at approximately 6:47 a.m. when Broward Sheriff's Office deputies responded to a call about a shooting at 7701 SW 10th Court. Upon arrival, they found Wyslert Fraise and another male victim inside a vehicle, both suffering from gunshot wounds.
Wyslert Fraise was pronounced dead at the scene, while the second victim was transported to Broward Health North with non-life-threatening injuries.
The investigation into Wyslert Fraise's death revealed that he was a father of two adult daughters and was on his way to work after dropping off a friend when the shooting occurred. Family members believe that both men were unintended targets of the shooting. The vehicle in which they were found had at least one bullet hole in the rear passenger door, indicating a targeted attack. Despite the efforts of law enforcement, no arrests have been made, and the suspect or suspects remain at large.
The case remains an active homicide investigation, with detectives from the Broward Sheriff's Office working diligently to uncover any leads. The family of Wyslert Fraise has expressed their grief and frustration over the lack of progress in identifying the perpetrators. Jessica Toney, Fraise's sister-in-law, voiced the family's pain, stating, "Just to know that somebody killed your brother, your son, your dad, and they don’t know who did it, that’s the hurtful part".
As of now, there have been no significant developments in the case, and it continues to be a source of anguish for Wyslert Fraise's family and friends. The community remains hopeful that justice will eventually be served, and the individuals responsible for this senseless act of violence will be brought to justice.
