TMZ broke the news of Darrell’s shocking death — he died in April from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. Officers responded to a report of a deceased individual at his house at about 2 in the morning, and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
“Storage Wars” was in the middle of airing its season when Darrell died. While he did not appear in the show’s latest installment, A&E paid tribute to him with an in-memoriam card during the April 25 broadcast.
In addition to Brandon and Brandon’s son, Darrell is survived by his daughter, Tiffany Sheets.
He was 67 years old.
