    One witness complained that the security was concerned about food and beverages being brought into the theater, but did not catch Loibl’s guns.

    After her performance ended at 10:00 p.m. local time, Grimmie signed autographs inside the venue. At 10:24 p.m., she was approached by 27-year-old Kevin James Loibl. She opened her arms to hug him. Loibl then pulled out his Glock pistol and shot her three times at point-blank range.

    This is so messed up. She went to hug a fan.
