TMZ reports that the Las Vegas Metro Police Department is currently investigating the case.
Rick has three children and Adam was the most private as he did not appear on the reality series or have a social media presence.
According to the release, Rick's second child initially helped out at the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, featured on the History Channel series, but then retired to forge his own path.
Apparently he was never featured on the reality series, which ran for 22 seasons starting in 2009.
