How did Glenn Rhee die?
Glenn Rhee was brutally murdered by Negan Smith. Negan is another main character in the series. He first began his journey as an antagonist on the show but as the series continued, Negan's character developed into an anti-hero. During his villain arc, Negan was shown to be one of the most dreaded characters of The Walking Dead. He is the ruthless leader of the Saviors and is a complete dictator who used to kill in order to send a message.
Negan is shown to hate defiance from anyone but he still respected those who were able to stand up to him. However, Negan could not tolerate any misbehavior against him and if one decided to go against him he retorted to punishing them in the most gruesome ways. This nature of Negan is what got Glenn killed.
Coming back to the point in how Glenn was killed, it was in the first episode of season 7 of The Walking Dead. Daryl Dixon, who is a member of Rick Grimes' group (Atlanta survivor camp), stood up against Negan's dictator behavior by punching him in the face. Though Negan lauded his bravery, he ended up punishing the whole group by killing Abraham and Glenn in the cruelest way. Negan bashed Abraham and Glenn's heads continuously with his bat Lucille till their faces were unrecognizable.
