19-year-old TikTok star Cooper Noriega’s cause of death has finally been revealed.
As Perezcious readers know, the young social media star passed away suddenly on June 9; he was found dead in a parking lot in Los Angeles. The content creator had a history of mental health challenges and substance abuse — and just hours before his death had eerily posted about dying young. So the news of his death was rattling and heartbreaking to so many people around the world…
Now, new insight into what happened on the devastating day is coming to light. According to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner on Monday, the teenager died from “combined effects of alprazolam [AKA Xanax], fentanyl and lorazepam,” the last of which is often used to treat anxiety disorders. The report also noted there was evidence of “recent clonazepam [AKA Klonopin] use.” His death has been ruled an “accident.”
