He believes his son died of a fentanyl overdose.

The Las Vegas Metro PD has confirmed that they are currently investigating the case. As details continue to unfold, the Harrison family is left to mourn the loss of their beloved son and brother.

Adam, one of Rick's three sons, had mostly maintained a low profile, opting out of the fame and public exposure associated with his father's reality show and store.

While he did lend a helping hand at the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in the past, it seems that he had since pursued his own endeavors, distancing himself from the spotlight.

Unlike Rick's eldest son, Corey Harrison, who has been heavily involved in Pawn Stars since its inception in 2009, Adam chose a different path, largely staying out of the public eye. Consequently, little information is available regarding Adam's personal and professional life.

The Harrison family released a statement to TMZ that read, "Our family is extremely saddened by the death of Adam. We ask for privacy as we grieve his loss."

Pawn Stars debuted in 2009 and quickly became the History Channel’s top show as three generations of the Harrison family worked, laughed and sometimes fought on camera as they bought and sold unique treasures that came through their store's doors.

The History Channel reality show has aired for 21 seasons and 675 episodes.

Numerous local experts in a variety of fields also regularly appear to appraise the items being sold or pawned, two of whom have gone on to their own spin-off programs. Antique restorer and metal artist Rick Dale went on to create American Restoration, and auto restoration expert Danny "The Count" Koker starred in his own spin-off, Counting Cars.
