A woman was killed and her TikTok star friend was critically injured while watching the newest installment of “The Purge” in a California movie theater Monday night, police said.

Rylee Goodrich, 18, was found dead and Anthony Barajas, 19, was gravely wounded during a 9:30 p.m. screening of “The Forever Purge,” a horror movie about a dystopian America where murder is legal once a year for 12 hours, according to the Corona Police Department.

Staff at the Regal Edwards Corona Crossings movie theater discovered both victims while cleaning up after the movie ended.

“During the actual movie time, no one apparently heard the gunshot,” employee Kailyn Dillon told KCAL. “I know that we do have security bag checks that we do on the daily and, unfortunately, I’m not sure if just was missed or if it was in a holster on their belt.”

Barajas, a TikTok personality with more than 1 million followers, last posted about a family vacation five days ago.
