The Clark County Coroner’s Office confirmed to The U.S. Sun that Coly died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Coly rose to fame through his videos on Vine before he and his girlfriend, Amber Harrison, started a popular YouTube channel together in 2018.
She then posted another video of flowers featuring one of Coly’s songs on her Instagram Story.
In her third post, Amber posted a picture of a phone with a message to her fans.
“This made me feel a lot better! Amen,” she wrote.
“Y’all don’t know the half !!!!!!!!!!!! LEAVE ME ALONE !!!!!” she added.
“Let him rest.”
In the next post, she concluded, “Got the answers I needed and I’m okay.”
It’s unclear if the couple were together at the time of Coly’s death.

When Coly’s manager announced his death on Thursday, fans immediately flooded Amber’s Instagram comments with questions and condolences.
Just hours later, her comments had been disabled.
Similarly, Coly’s manager, I Discover Stars, has limited responses to his posts on the platform.
On Thursday, Coly’s manager wrote, “Rest in peace @iamlucascoly I love you bro. My heart is ripped in half. Wait for me up there.”
However, the caption has since been changed to just a heart emoji.
