Beyoncé, Spike Lee pay tribute to man fatally stabbed at Brooklyn gas station

NEW YORK -- Celebrities are honoring O'Shae Sibley, the man who was stabbed to death during an argument at a gas station last weekend in Midwood, Brooklyn.

Wednesday morning, the homepage of Beyoncé's website read, "Rest In Power O'Shae Sibley," and Spike Lee posted a tribute on Instagram.

Sibley was dancing with friends when they were approached by a man who allegedly made homophobic comments. The argument turned physical, and the 28-year-old was fatally stabbed. 

Sibley was mourned with a vigil Tuesday in the East Village. He was a professional dancer featured in music videos and performed at New York City's Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts.

The NYPD is investigating his death as a possible hate crime. Police say they have identified a suspect, but no arrests have been made.
