Avery Mayweathers, a 36-year-old Black man, died in Los Angeles on August 27, 2026. Los Angeles County death information identified Mayweathers after he was found deceased in a parking lot. The medical examiner case associated with his death was recorded as case number 2026-13591.
The medical examiner determined that Mayweathers died from a gunshot wound to the head and classified the manner of death as suicide. His death was therefore not classified as a homicide. Available records do not provide additional circumstances leading up to the shooting, including how long he had been at the location, who discovered him, or whether anyone else was present when the shooting occurred.
Because authorities classified the death as a suicide, available reporting does not identify a suspect, and no arrest, criminal charge, trial, or conviction has been reported in connection with Mayweathers' death. Although his name also appears in firearm-death databases for August 27 in Los Angeles, those listings do not contradict the medical examiner's determination that the fatal gunshot wound was self-inflicted rather than the result of a criminal homicide.
