A suspect in the killing of O'Shae Sibley has reportedly turned himself in to the police.

Sibley, an openly gay professional dancer, was stabbed and killed last weekend outside a gas station in Brooklyn.

According to authorities, the stabbing happened was reportedly killed at the Mobil Gas Station on Coney Island Avenue and Avenue P after a fight that police say started when two men confronted a group of shirtless men in shorts and swimsuits pumping gas and dancing.
