A 19-year-old TikTok star, Anthony Barajas, on Saturday died after being shot at a movie theatre in southern California of the United States. 

Barajas died after the shooting that also killed his 18-year-old friend Rylee Goodrich.

The victims were shot on Monday at a theater that was showing "The Forever Purge,". 

Authorities have described it as a "random and unprovoked" attack.

The suspect reportedly acted alone, and there’s no indication he knew the victims or of Barajas’ role as a TikTok influencer. 

Barajas was popular on social media for his humor, with almost 1 million followers on TikTok.
