Tyrone Fleming, who starred in the popular YouTube series 848, was found dead in his Bronx apartment. Fleming, who also worked for Con Ed, did not show up to work on Wednesday, prompting his concerned co-workers to contact his mother.
When his fiancé arrived at the scene of the crime, she found his lifeless body blocking entrance into the space. She eventually managed to pry open the door, only to find her beau covered in a pool of blood with multiple stab wounds to the back.
Tiffany Tucker, Fleming's sister, reveals how he was "stabbed three times in his back and one hit his artery, he bled out. We have no idea who might have wanted to do this. No idea."
Tucker notes how Fleming "leaves two beautiful kids, a son and a daughter, 16 and 10 years old. He was hardworking and a good man. He loved his kids and his family."
Fleming was cast as Tye Banga in 848, an Internet crime drama based in the Bronx; the series regularly drew more than 100,000 views per webisode.
