The Tragic Loss of Adam Harrison

The cause of death for Adam Harrison, the son of "Pawn Stars" creator and star Rick Harrison, has been released a month after he died in a Las Vegas home.

The 39-year-old died from fentanyl and methamphetamine toxicity, confirmed by the Clark County Office of the Coroner/Medical Examiner. The manner of death was determined to be accidental.

According to a police report, Adam Harrison was pronounced dead in the guest house he was living in on the afternoon of Jan. 19. He was discovered after another resident expressed concern about his absence since Jan. 17.

Addressing the Opioid Crisis

Rick Harrison, in a statement following his son's passing, emphasized the severity of the fentanyl crisis in the United States, calling for greater awareness and action.

In 2021, 107,000 people died from drug overdoses in the U.S., with opioids, particularly synthetic opioids like fentanyl, being the main driver of these deaths.

Illicit fentanyl is increasingly being mixed with other substances, amplifying the risk of overdose and highlighting the urgent need for interventions to combat the opioid epidemic.

Remembering Adam Harrison

Rick and Corey Harrison paid tribute to Adam through heartfelt messages on social media, reflecting on cherished memories and expressing love for their lost family member.

Adam, though not featured on "Pawn Stars," was a beloved member of the Harrison family and had previously worked at Gold & Silver Pawn, the iconic storefront featured in the show.

The loss of Adam Harrison adds to the family's tragedy following the passing of Richard Harrison, fondly known as "The Old Man," in 2018.
