UPDATE (6/11/16, 11:33 p.m. ET): Police have confirmed the identity of Grimmie's shooter to be 27-year-old Kevin James Loibl.

A Season 6 contestant on NBC's The Voice, Christina Grimmie, died early Saturday morning (June 11) after a gunman opened fire on her as she met with fans after her concert at the Plaza LIVE in Orlando.

According to police, the 22-year-old was signing autographs around 10 p.m. Friday night when a 27-year-old white male approached and shot her. Grimmie's brother managed to tackle the gunman, who later died of self-inflicted gun wounds. The singer succumbed to her injuries at an area hospital.

Speaking at a news conference, Orlando police chief John Mina said they were investigating the possibility that the suspect, later identified as Kevin James Loibl, might have been a deranged fan who traveled to Orlando to target Grimmie.
