Michael-Anthony Leones Espino, known as “Mykee” to friends and on social media, was last seen Sunday at around 12:30 p.m., leaving the 14200 block of Southwest 161st Court in Miami.
On Tuesday, the sheriff’s office confirmed that Leones Espino had been found in the area of Southwest 162nd Avenue and Southwest 138th Terrace the day before. Authorities on Monday advised of a death investigation in that area after a man’s body was found near train tracks, but did not immediately confirm that it was Leones Espino.
The sheriff’s office said he died by apparent suicide. He was 28.
The dancer, who went by @mykeemooves on TikTok and Instagram, had almost 80,000 followers across both platforms. Videos showed him backstage and preparing for Rauw Alejandro’s Cosa Nuestra tour, which ended in November 2025. In other videos, he could be seen on stage with the artist during his Saturno tour, and appeared alongside him in a music video for his song Touching The Sky.
