A rep for the Harrison family confirmed to the Las Vegas Review-Journal that Adam had overdosed and requested ‘privacy’ on behalf of the Harrisons.
DailyMail.com has reached out to representatives for Rick for comment.
Adam’s nickname was ‘Wax’ and his older brother Corey Harrison, 40, also paid tribute to him with a sweet Instagram post.
He shared a throwback photo with his brother in a bathtub when they were children.
‘Wax wtf I will always love you bubba,’ he captioned the post.
Adam is survived by his parents, Harrison and ex-wife Kim, his brother, Corey, his half-brother Jake, and his three daughters Sarina, Ciana and Marissa.
TMZ reports that the Las Vegas Metro Police Department is currently investigating the case.
Rick has three children and Adam was the most private as he has not appeared on the reality series nor did he have a social media presence.
According to the publication the second child of Rick had initially helped out at the World Famous Gold & Silver Pawn Shop shown on the History Channel series but had stepped away to pave his own path.
He was seemingly never featured on the reality series which has gone on for 22 seasons since 2009.

TMZ reports that there is quite a bit of mystery involving Adam as there isn’t much known about him.
They report that some claimed he made a living as a plumber but their sources indicate that he worked some kind of trade but it remains unclear what job specifically.
Adam’s older brother Corey, 40, is a main star on the series as their mother is Rick’s first wife Kim whom he was married to from 1982 to 1985.
