Brown was located in his residence deceased, as a result of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound on Tuesday, RadarOnline.com can confirm. He was found by his brother Gabe, another of Kody and Janelle Brown's six children shared together.
Flagstaff Police officers responded to a report of a death inside a home and spoke with three of his roommates who resided at the address. Garrison's room was located on the second floor.
The first roommate who was very "shaken up" spoke with cops and told them he was about to head out to class when "he heard Gabriel crying so he came out to see what was happening."
The roommate mentioned he heard a "loud pop" but could not recall when and noted that he didn't think about it until hearing the devastating news.
"He informed me that it did not sound like a gunshot, it sounded as if someone dropped something. He advised me that they have three cats and a dog," the report stated.
The roommate said Garrison was his landlord, noting they were friends and spoke when they crossed paths. "He appeared fine," the roommate said about Garrison the night before.
"He stated that Robert mentioned to him that he drank a lot and was going to stop this month," per the report, adding that Garrison did not seem intoxicated when they had last spoken.
