Nashville police arrested five juveniles Friday in the fatal shooting of a popular local musician, PEOPLE confirms.

Police say the three boys and two girls were in a stolen red Chevrolet Colorado pick up truck in the alley behind Yorlet’s home when they spotted him outside.

“The juveniles interacted with Yorlets, took his wallet and ultimately demanded that he surrender the keys to his vehicle,” according to a Nashville police press release obtained by PEOPLE. “It is believed that he was fatally shot after he refused.”

Police say after the Belmont University student and member of the band Carverton was shot, he made it back inside his house where he was found by his roommate around 3 p.m. He was rushed to Vanderbilt University Medical Center where he died.

In a statement on Facebook, Yorlets bandmates said they were “heartbroken.”

“We are in a state of shock and are having to grasp the reality that is now in front of us,” they wrote. “We will never forget Kyle, and though he is gone too soon his legacy is here to stay.”

Police found the stolen pick up truck abandoned Thursday evening.

The youths were apprehended the following morning in another stolen vehicle, a Hyundai Santa Fe, at the West Nashville Walmart. Police recovered a stolen loaded nine-millimeter pistol inside the Santa Fe. Another loaded and stolen gun that the juveniles allegedly hid in one of the aisles inside the department store was found.

A GoFundMe page has been set up to help Yorlets family pay for travel and funeral expenses.
