Vigil held for local rapper

MIAMI (WSVN) -- Loved ones held a candlelight vigil for a South Florida rapper who was shot and killed in front of his kids.

Family and friends gathered Monday night to remember Robert Labranche, popularly known as Bizzle in the music world. Many of those who knew him personally said he was more than just a rapper but also a good person.
