Xavier Malik Williams, 21, of Fort Lauderdale died October 5, 2020, after a confrontation at a Speedway on West Commercial Boulevard in Tamarac, Broward County. The events began with an armed carjacking in Greenacres, Palm Beach County; Williams reportedly stole a gray Mercedes-Benz and drove into Broward. At the gas station he became involved in a road rage incident with another driver in a black Infiniti Q40. Williams allegedly threatened to rob that driver, and an exchange of gunfire followed. Deputies from the Broward Sheriff’s Office found Williams deceased at the scene.

Homicide detectives and the crime scene unit reviewed surveillance footage and interviewed witnesses. Investigators determined the carjacking occurred about an hour before the shooting. If anyone has information about the carjacking, Williams’ movements that day, or the incident at the Speedway, please come forward.
