The circumstances remain under investigation by local authorities.
Malik, 31, announced on social media Saturday that he is pushing back the U.S. leg of his tour, which was supposed to begin next week, until January so he can mourn his friend.
"Given the heartbreaking loss experienced this week, I've made the decision to postpone the US leg of the STAIRWAY TO THE SKY Tour," Malik wrote on X.
