Grant, a senior at Miramar High School, had been reported missing by his family on Sunday.
Neighbors describe him as a good kid who was mostly quiet, into gaming and had plans to go to college.
“I watched Dwight grow up, and that’s what hurts. I won’t see him smile again,” neighbor Sergio Smith said.

His body was discovered on Tuesday near a Miramar apartment complex. Officers had been canvassing the area when they saw bloodstains that led them to discover the body in some bushes.
Detectives haven't said how or why Grant was killed, only that it was a homicide.
Police said surveillance cameras at the complex had captured a violent incident.
