Chris Pratt pays tribute to late Parks and Rec costar Jonathan Joss: 'Always such a kind dude'

Chris Pratt is paying tribute to his late 'Parks and Rec' costar Jonathan Joss, who was killed Sunday in an alleged homophobic attack: 'Hug your loved ones.'

Ahead of Pratt’s tribute, fellow Parks and Rec star Nick Offerman told PEOPLE that Joss' former costars were in touch and processing his loss together. That evening, officers were dispatched to a shooting in progress in a residential area of San Antonio around 7 p.m, police told Entertainment Weekly. Gonzales alleged that while they were expressing their grief, a man approached them and began "yelling violent homophobic slurs" before raising a gun and shooting at the couple.
