BIOGRAPHY, WIKIPEDIA, AGE, AND CAUSE OF DEATH: Leandro De Niro Rodriguez died suddenly while sitting in his chair.

Robert De Niro’s grandson Leandro De Niro Rodriguez was reportedly “found dead sitting in a chair”.

His mother, Drena De Niro, announced that her son had tragically died in a statement shared on Instagram on July 2.

The 19-year-old is said to have been found by a friend inside a $950,000 (£750,000) apartment in the Cipriani Club Residences on Wall Street in New York City.

Leandro’s pal decided to check in on the actor when they hadn’t heard from him in a few days. Leandro’s cause of death is yet to be revealed.

He’s said to have been found with “a white powdery substance on a plate near his body.” A police source told the Daily Mail the substance was found near his body and there were no signs of trauma.

A spokesperson for New York City Police told The Mirror: “On Sunday, July 2, 2023, at approximately 1423 hours, police received a 911 call of an aided at 55 Wall Street, in the confines of the 1 Precinct.

“Upon arrival, an 18-year-old male was found unconscious, unresponsive and was pronounced deceased by EMS on scene. The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner will determine the cause of death.”

Leandro’s mother paid tribute to her son on social media as she remembered him as a “sweet angel”. For the past six years, actor Robert De Niro has become more well-known for spewing hatred and expressing his desire to physically harm President Trump than for acting.
