A Toronto rapper is dead after being shot numerous times in his car in what police are calling a brazen attack in downtown Toronto.
Det. Sgt. Steve Ryan says the victim identified as Shmar Parris, 25, who social media messages of condolence said also went by the name Murda Marz, a rapper who several videos posted on YouTube was known to police and the overnight shooting is believed to be a targeted attack.
Ryan says a light-coloured SUV was seen driving erratically away from the scene but there are no details on any suspects or how many may be involved.
Police say Parris was pronounced dead in hospital Friday after being found slumped in the drivers seat of the car with multiple gunshot wounds in Cabbagetown, near Carlton Street and Parliament Street.

Murda Marz Twitter profile said he was from Nova Scotia and Toronto; messages of condolence posted on Twitter and Instagram said he was a good person who always made everyone laugh.
Street N****,a video posted on YouTube, was captioned as being murda marz in north preston nova scotia and featured him in front of Tasty Pizza in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, rapping of the clubs at night, man all them pretty ladies and saying if Im not on the road Im in the p-e-n.

Good riddance, whoever he was.
He was just turning his life around, too.
“...he was a good person who always made everyone laugh.
LOL. Well, bye!
He looks half white. He could have been Obamas son.
But Bieber still lives.
Life is not fair!
It reads like an autobiography. “If I’m not on the road, I’m in the pen.” Well Son, you are permanently on the road now; to oblivion!
I’d bet that the chances of this being a net positive for civilization are well north of 90%.
Good!
