Authorities found Teddy Ray’s body floating in a swimming pool over the weekend, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Dept. stated on Monday.
A maintenance man found the 32-year-old in the pool located at a private residence in Rancho, Mirage, California–about two hours East of Los Angeles.
“No foul play was found,” the sheriff also stated. But the cause and manner of death are currently under investigation.
Teddy’s passing comes two weeks after his 32nd birthday.
