what happened to sylvester stallone son

Sage Stallone, the eldest son of actor Sylvester Stallone, passed away on July 13, 2012, at the age of 36. He was found dead at his home in Studio City, Los Angeles, and had not been heard from for four days prior to his death. An autopsy by the Los Angeles coroner and toxicology tests determined that he died of a heart attack caused by coronary heart disease brought on by atherosclerosis. There were no signs of excessive drug use, and a small amount of the sedative hydrocodone was found in his body, but it was an acceptable level and could be found from taking over-the-counter pain medication. Sage Stallones mother, Sasha Czack, had begged him not to undergo extensive dental surgery weeks before his death, and he was on pain pills at the time of his death. Sylvester Stallone released a statement calling for an end to speculation and questionable reporting about his sons death and asking for his sons memory and soul to be left in peace.
