'Voice' star Christina Grimmie dies after shooting at Orlando concert, killer commits suicide

Singer Christina Grimmie, the former YouTube star who rose to fame on ‘The Voice’, was shot dead at her concert in Orlando, Florida. She was earlier reported to be fighting for her life. The shooter took his own life at the scene.
Grimmie, 22, was performing the show at The Plaza Live concert venue with her pop-punk band Before You Exit when the shooting happened. The actual incident took place as she was signing autographs after the show.
The unidentified gunman, whose motive remains unclear, reportedly managed to fire off five bullets before he was tackled by the singer’s 22-year-old brother. The assailant somehow managed to fatally shoot himself afterwards.
Orlando police officials said at a conference the singer was shot around 10:45pm on Friday. According to the statement, the shooter had two guns in his possession. No further information was provided.
Witnesses told the Orlando Sentinel of hearing five gunshots. Josh Call, who worked a vegan hot dog stand outside the venue, was among the first to rush in after hearing the shots. He saw Grimmie’s body on the ground, with blood streaming from her head, and another person injured nearby.
He added that a man was also lying in a pool of blood, his face “completely disfigured.”“I don’t think anyone expected something like this to happen. It was horrifying,” he said.
Grimmie was earlier reported in critical condition, before her representative confirmed the bad news online.
