On December 19th, the young Army veteran died from what was determined to be an accidental shooting. The specific circumstances of the incident that led to his death are not detailed in available online sources, but it was ultimately deemed a tragic mishap.
Following an investigation into the shooting, authorities announced that no criminal charges would be pursued.
