On New Year’s Day 2026, a celebration for the Pink House Dallas after-hours club turned violent when gunfire broke out in the parking lot near Empire Central and North Stemmons Freeway at about 3:45 a.m. Zecqurie Cannon Grant Fields, 25, a Dallas rapper known as Zeethewizard, was critically wounded along with four other people and taken to a local hospital. He remained in critical condition for days while family and friends asked for privacy and an end to public speculation about his condition.

Fields, a Dallas native who most recently lived in west Oak Cliff, had moved into music after a sports injury and was known in the New Dallas rap scene for promoting peace and unity. He was a father to two young daughters. On January 5, 2026, he died from the injuries sustained in the shooting. The Dallas Police Department opened an investigation, and on January 20 authorities arrested 26-year-old Dameian Roberson, who was charged with murder and held in the Dallas County jail; investigators have not released a motive.

If anyone has information about the shooting or knew Fields, please share tips with the Dallas Police Department.
