Williams died of a heroin overdose with fentanyl.

Williams famously played Omar Little, a rogue drug dealer robber, in HBO’s hit The Wire from 2002 to 2008.

In addition to his work on the critically acclaimed drama, Williams has also appeared in films and other TV series such as Boardwalk Empire.

Williams’ death sparked a months-long investigation into a Brooklyn drug ring linked to the actor’s overdose, with Irvin Cartagena, known as “Green Eyes,” determined to be its leader.

Video surveillance captured the moment Cartagena handed the drugs to Williams, a day before the actor died.

Moments earlier, Williams handed the man a wad of cash, and Cartagena was seen counting the bills before reaching into a paper bag stashed next to a blue trash can in front of the apartment.

The actor was found unconscious and face down the next day by his cousin in the living room of Williams’ Williamsburg apartment. He was pronounced dead by medics who rushed to the scene.

Cartagena, who was previously arrested twice on drug-related charges but released under New York’s bail reform policy, was arrested in Puerto Rico five months after Williams’ death.
