A representative of the Harrison family confirmed this to the Las Vegas Review-Journal that Adam had overdosed and requested “privacy” on behalf of the Harrisons.
DailyMail.com has reached out to Rick’s representatives for comment.
Adam’s nickname was ‘Wax’ and his older brother Corey Harrison, 40, also paid tribute to him with a sweet Instagram post.
He shared a throwback photo with his brother in a bathtub when they were kids.
“Wax wtf I will always love you bubba,” he captioned the post.
Adam is survived by his parents, Harrison and ex-wife Kim, his brother Corey, his half-brother Jake and his three daughters Sarina, Ciana and Marissa.
TMZ reports that Las Vegas police are currently investigating the case.
Rick has three children and Adam was the most private as he did not appear on the reality series nor had a social media presence.
According to the publication, Rick’s second child had initially helped out at the world-famous gold and silver pawn shop featured on the History Channel series, but left to pave his own path.
He was seemingly never seen on the reality series that has run for 22 seasons since 2009.

TMZ reports that there is quite a bit of mystery surrounding Adam as not much is known about him.
They report that some claimed he made a living as a plumber, but their sources indicate he worked in some profession, but it remains unclear exactly what job.
Adam’s older brother Corey, 40, stars in the series, as their mother is Rick’s first wife Kim, to whom he was married from 1982 to 1985.
