Michael Tylo, Jr. drowned and was pronounced dead at 11:55pm on Thursday, according to the Clark County Coroner, Michael Murphy. The death has been ruled an accident; Michael apparently fell into the pool following some sort of medical event. A family spokesperson states that the young man was at the Las Vegas-area house with his older step-brother, Christopher, and was believed to have suffered a seizure and fallen into the pool after stepping outside the home to use his cell phone. Though Michael had no known history of substance abuse, toxicology tests are bring run. The coronor's office states that this is standard procedure in this type of situation. Results of the tests will not be available for several weeks.
