Christina Grimmies Killer Kevin Loibl Had History of Violence: Report

The man who shot and killed Christina Grimmie on Friday, June 10, had a history of violence, TMZ reports. According to a police report obtained by the site, law enforcement were called to the home of Kevin James Loibl on two occasions prior to Grimmie’s murder.

TMZ reports that Kevin and his father’s fiancée, Dawn, got into an argument at their St. Petersburg, Florida, home in 2013. Dawn reportedly told the police that Kevin slammed her arm in a door, breaking her wrist. Kevin, however, claimed that Dawn was intoxicated and that he was trying to escape her. No arrest was made.

Police were called to their home again in 2014 when Kevin and his father got into an altercation, but TMZ notes that again, no arrests were made.

As previously reported, Kevin traveled to the Plaza Live theater in Orlando on Friday night to murder the season 6 Voice alum. According to police, Kevin had with him two handguns, ammunition and a large hunting knife. Kevin shot her during a meet-and-greet after the show and then himself after the singer’s brother, Marcus, tackled Loibl.

On Saturday, the shooter’s family placed a note on their front door that read: “Deepest sorrow for lost to the family, friends & fans of the very talented Christina Grimmie. No other comments.”

A vigil is planned for Monday night at Evesham’s memorial complex in New Jersey to remember the late singer.
