The content creator died at the age of 21 over the weekend.

JT is mourning the death of influencer DreamDollBri, who was reportedly shot and killed in Florida at the age of 21. The City Girls rapper took to X to express her condolences and sadness after the influencer’s passing. “My heart aches for Bri🥺💔 baby girl was so full of life,” she wrote.

According to TMZ, the 21-year-old influencer was leaving a party when the vehicle she was in was shot. Police said that she was in a Lamborghini on Sunday morning, around 5:30 a.m., when gunfire erupted, and the car crashed a block away from the shooting. Three people who were in the car were struck by gunfire after a car pulled up to the driver’s side and began shooting. The three victims were reportedly taken to a hospital, where DreamDollBri was pronounced dead. It should be noted that police have not ID’d DreamDollBri as a victim, though the tributes and posts on social media from close friends and associates confirmed her passing.

"Certainly they targeted this particular car for some reason," said Miramar Police Chief Delrish Moss. "We're trying to figure out why.” At this point, police haven’t revealed who the suspect is, though TMZ suggests that authorities have an idea of who it might be.
