Disney star Cameron Boyce’s cause of death is deferred ‘pending further investigation’

Disney Channel star Cameron Boyce’s cause of death has been deferred, requiring a further investigation from the coroner’s office.

Boyce was pronounced dead at his North Hollywood home Saturday afternoon at 2:35 p.m. after he was found unresponsive, the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner said in a press release Monday. He was 20. 

Public Information Officer Sarah Ardalani said that the actor’s cause of death has been deferred “pending further investigation” after an autopsy was completed Monday.

There was no further information on the nature of the required investigation.

Boyce’s family told ABC News – which is part of the Disney/ABC Television Group owned by the Walt Disney Company – that the actor succumbed to a seizure.

“It is with a profoundly heavy heart that we report that this morning we lost Cameron,” the family told ABC. “He passed away in his sleep due to a seizure which was a result of an ongoing medical condition for which he was being treated.”
