The shooting happened around 2:30 a.m. Sunday outside Exchange South Beach at 1532 Washington Avenue, police said.
Officers responded and found Case suffering from at least one gunshot wound. He was given CPR until Miami Beach Fire Rescue arrived and brought him to Jackson Memorial Hospital's Ryder Trauma Center, where he died from his injuries.
Witnesses said there was some sort of argument before they heard the gunfire.
Police haven't said what led to the shooting, but said their investigation is still underway.
Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner said Reaux had just been removed from the club and came back armed with a gun.

"This is part of the issue that we have, we have certain establishments in our city that seem to be attracting issues," Meiner said.
Meiner expressed outrage over the deadly crime and vowed to introduce measures in the next month to curb the violence, including cracking down on problematic businesses.
“Certainly, establishments that have consistent calls for police, consistent code violations, the status quo is not acceptable," Meiner said.
Exchange South Beach posted about the incident in an Instagram post.
"Our hearts are saddened by the loss of our team member Marley," the post read. "Marley was a friendly and warm hearted soul who left his mark on everyone here at Exchange. We are sending our deepest condolences to his family & they are in our prayers at this very sad time."
The post said that a memorial service/fundraiser will be held in the upcoming week. A GoFundMe was also set up to help Case's family.
