- A federal agent administered two doses of Narcan, an emergency treatment for a suspected opioid overdose.
- Juice regained consciousness, but was incoherent. He was rushed to Advocate Christ Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead at 3:14 a.m.
- During their search, officers and feds found 41 “vacuum-sealed” bags of marijuana, six bottles of prescription codeine cough syrup, two 9 mm pistols, a .40-caliber pistol, a high-capacity ammunition magazine and metal-piercing bullets.
- Two men working security for Juice Wrld were arrested and received misdemeanor charges of illegally possessing the guns and ammunition.
- Authorities suspect Juice may have ingested several Percocet pills to hide them.
- An autopsy was performed on Juice Wrld on Monday, but a toxicology, neuropathology, and cardiac pathology is needed to determine an official cause of death.
