On August 1, 2025, Steven Afford, age 45, a male from Los Angeles, California, was found deceased at his residence. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner identified him and determined the manner of death to be suicide, with the cause listed as a gunshot wound of the head; the formal pronouncement came on Friday, August 1.
Publicly available entries that catalog fatal shootings, including Gun Violence Archive and a Gun Memorial page, recorded the loss of Steven Afford, age 45, in Los
Angeles on the same date, reinforcing the basic timeline of events reported by the coroner.
Because the death of Steven Afford, age 45, male, was ruled a suicide, authorities have not announced any suspects, and there have been no arrests tied to his case. The coroner’s finding closes the door on a criminal investigation into homicide and aligns with the absence of suspect information in public incident listings.
