Paul MitchellThe son’s death remains shrouded in mystery – because although we now know how he died… it’s still unclear exactly what led to it.
TMZ obtained the police report and medical examiner’s report for Angus MitchellThe case of AM’s death in Hawaii – and the paperwork certainly sheds more light on what happened before AM’s death…as well as what happened in the attempt to save him.
According to the documents, cops say witnesses said Angus was at a party with friends the night before when he was found at the bottom of the pool at his Honolulu home…but no one had a clear explanation as to why he went inside. in the water. . only to never resurface.
Long story short… a driver showed up at Angus’ house that morning of January 3rd – when he was supposed to be picked up and taken to the airport – but Angus was nowhere to be found. After a quick search, the driver discovered Angus in the water… looking lifeless.
Cops say he dove in and pulled him out, trying to give him CPR – and when first responders arrived, they continued trying to do the same…even using a defibrillator.
Ultimately, life-saving measures were unsuccessful and Angus was pronounced dead.
Cops did a full investigation and say after conducting interviews – the last thing any of Angus’ friends said they remembered was him going to the pool deck alone, not appearing under the influence of alcohol or appearing unwell. There are even surveillance videos taken – and still images show Angus in the backyard getting into the water.
Like we said… none of Angus’ friends thought there was anything wrong with him – noting he wasn’t on any medication, nor was he under any kind of stress… he’s also fit/healthy.
The only thing cited by witnesses in the report is that Angus had been drinking the night before – but it doesn’t appear that anyone was alarmed by the amount. In terms of the coroner – they say Angus died from accidental drowning… but there doesn’t seem to be any mention of toxicology. FWIW, much of the paperwork is also heavily redacted.
We broke the story… Paul was literally posting pictures of himself and his friends at the meeting the day before he appeared dead – and he looked as happy as he could be. He was co-owner of his father’s John Paul Mitchell Systems hair care empire.
He was 53 years old.
