Singer Christina Grimmie was shot and killed after a concert she performed at in Orlando last night.
According to reports, a man walked up and shot her, resulting in fatal injuries.
Her brother, Marcus Grimmie then tackled the man who then killed himself in the ensuing struggle.
Now Marcus has taken to Facebook to share an emotional tribute to his sister.
He writes:
“By now I’m sure many you have heard that Christina has passed away due to gunfire after a show. I really don’t have much to say about anything and am just blown away with the prayers and support. I PROMISE I will respond to everyone when I can.”
“Christina was more than my sister. She was a partner in life. A superstar. A goofball. Introverted. And a friend to everyone. Genuinely. But above all…she was my baby sister. She loved the Lord and her family and was always there for me and I honestly don’t know what ill do without her.”
“But please, if you are reading this far, I would love all and any of you to post pics of you and her and/or memories you have of her down in the comments. I will cherish it forever and always. So please do that for me. Thank you all so so much. The support has been crazy and I do feel a peace. I just don’t have any words. I love you all.”
He then shared a collage of images and encouraged Christina’s fans to do the same.
The man who shot Christina Grimmie has been identified as 27-year-old Kevin James Loibl.
