The Palm Beach County Medical Examiner confirmed his death Saturday and mentioned that the cause “remains under investigation.” TMZ shared that the artist had a “medical emergency” while at a hotel in Boca Raton. Paramedics took him to a hospital on a stretcher, but he passed away later. Authorities found no other injuries or anyone else affected at the site.

TMZ received reports that POORSTACY had been staying at the hotel for 10 days with a woman and a young child. The information about the emergency is also unclear, and there is no official information to connect the situation with suicide. TMZ reports that fans have posted comments on his last Instagram post about what could have happened, but the authorities have not verified any theories.

However, his family strongly disputes this conclusion. A source connected to the family told TMZ they do not believe the gunshot wound was self-inflicted. They suspect that foul play may have been involved and are questioning the circumstances surrounding his death.

The events leading to the medical response are still being put together by the officials. The investigation is still in progress, and they have yet to declare the official cause of death.

Investigators are still working to uncover more details about the events surrounding his death. Further information is awaited.
