In a heart-wrenching revelation, Angus Cloud, the young actor celebrated for his role in the hit series 'Euphoria', succumbed to an accidental overdose, as confirmed by recent autopsy reports. The 25-year-old's system contained a lethal concoction of fentanyl, cocaine, methamphetamine, and benzodiazepine at the time of his demise.
The Alameda County Coroner's findings, as reported by both OK! Magazine and TMZ, indicate that Cloud's death resulted from acute intoxication due to this combination of drugs. The tragic event transpired on July 31, when Angus's mother, Lisa, discovered him pulseless at their family home in Oakland. She immediately dialed 911, reporting a "possible overdose". Upon the arrival of the Oakland Police Department and fire services, Angus was declared dead on the scene.
The tragedy was compounded by the fact that Angus had been grappling with profound grief following the death of his father just two months prior. Sources close to the family shared that Angus had been tormented by "severe suicidal thoughts" after laying his father to rest in Ireland. While he was surrounded by family, trying to navigate through his overwhelming sorrow, Lisa has refuted claims suggesting her son was suicidal.

Conor Cloud, Angus's father, had passed away in May after a brief yet aggressive battle with cancer. Lisa recounted the rapid progression of the disease, which left their family and friends devastated.
In the days leading up to his untimely death, Angus had attended an album release party, where he seemed to be in high spirits, mingling and celebrating with numerous attendees. His sudden passing left the community in shock, prompting friends and well-wishers to paint a mural in his memory in Oakland. This mural has since evolved into a sanctuary for those wishing to pay their respects and remember the young actor.
The artwork even caught the attention of Angus's 'Euphoria' co-star, Zendaya, who took to social media to share the mural. She, along with other celebrities, has been vocal in paying tribute to Angus, emphasizing the cherished moments they shared.
The untimely death of such a promising young talent serves as a stark reminder of the devastating impact of substance abuse and the profound grief that can envelop individuals following the loss of a loved one. As the entertainment industry and fans mourn the loss of Angus Cloud, it's essential to remember the importance of mental health support and the dangers of drug misuse.
