The Okanogan County Coroner has ruled the death of Alaskan Bush People star Matt Brown a suicide, according to official records.
Matt died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, the coroner reported, noting that he was under the influence of methamphetamine at the time of his death, with subsequent immersion in water contributing to his death. Matt's body was discovered in a Washington river on Saturday, with his brother Noah Brown present at the scene.
“For the past couple days, I’ve been working with search and rescue groups trying to locate the body. And today, the group that I was working with located the missing body, and I identified it as Matthew,” Noah shared in an Instagram post. “My oldest brother, Matthew Brown, has passed away.”
Noah continued, “I was there when we pulled him out of the river. We hauled him up off the bank. And then, after the sheriffs got there and everything, the coroner did his thing, and I went down to identify that it was him. It’s definitely Matthew. His ID and Social Security card was on him, and I was able to visually identify that it was Matthew.”
View this post on InstagramDays earlier, his brother Bear Brown had expressed concern after learning that witnesses reportedly saw Matt take his own life. Once Matt was found, Bear reflected on how Matt had struggled with substance abuse.
"He has been struggling for a long time with alcohol and drugs," Bear shared on Instagram after previously asking people to stop sending money to Matt. "He has done a lot of stuff that people don't even know about, and everyone thinks that the family has shunned him and won't have anything to do with him, but that's not actually the case. He didn't want anything to do with the family."
The Brown family was hopeful Matt could remain sober, but the last time Bear had spoken to Matt, he had "fallen off the wagon" after enduring a bad breakup. Still, Bear said, "I would have never thought that Matt would take his own life."
