TikTok star Cooper Noriega dies at 19 after claiming mental health and drug problems
Well-known influencer and tiktoker Cooper Noriega has turned up dead in a Los Angeles mall parking lot under bizarre circumstances. The young man of only 19 years old spoke openly some time ago about his psychological problems and drug addiction.
The tragic news has come just a day after the influencer posted a video in bed in which he wrote: “Who else is thinking they’re going to die young?”.
A Los Angeles citizen was the one who found Noriega dead in the parking lot of a shopping mall, a medical team arrived at the scene but could do nothing to revive the young man. A spokesman for the Los Angeles Coroner’s Office has reported that, despite having already performed an autopsy, they have not found the cause of death: “We need more investigation into the death, including additional studies,” he said.
Noriega already made public on his account the psychological and drug addiction problems he was going through in recent months, just a week ago he reported that he was creating a group to talk about his experiences with mental health on the Discord platform. “I’m going to create it because I love you guys and I’d like you to not be alone.”
The influencer had more than 2 million followers on TikTok and 100 million likes.
