Actor Austin Mazos, who made his face known as a child actor in the American TV series 24 Hour NYPD, has died at the age of 27.
On the 13th (local time), local media outlets such as CNN and TMZ reported that Mazos died at a homeless facility in Los Angeles on the 11th.
According to the coroner's records, the cause of death is still under investigation, but there is no sign of murder, and it is analyzed that death appears to have been caused by a fentanyl overdose.
Fentanyl, the so-called zombie drug, is a narcotic pain reliever that has rapidly spread as a new type of drug in countries such as the United States and Mexico.
Fentanyl is a drug that can cause death even in very small doses.
The cause of Mazos' death is still under investigation, so nothing has been revealed yet.
The autopsy is scheduled to be completed by the 14th, and it is expected that it will take several months for the results to come out.
Mazos gained much love in 1999 for his role as Dennis Franz's son in the ABC detective drama NYPD 24 Hours.
He has since appeared in the films Treasure Castle, Ant Bulli, and more.
May the souls of the deceased refrain.
