Sheets was pronounced dead at the scene, and his body has since been transferred to the Mohave County Medical Examiner’s Office.
Sheets appeared in 163 episodes of A&E’s Storage Wars before retiring to Lake Havasu, where he was reportedly operating an antique shop called Havasu Show Me Your Junk.
Sheets was previously hospitalized in March 2019 after suffering a heart attack and undergoing surgery.
Storage Wars, which made its debut in 2010, follows teams of bidders on the hunt for valuable abandoned and repossessed storage units. “With only a few moments to glimpse inside, they must decide whether they’ve spotted trash or treasure that they can turn into big profits,” as per A&E.
This incident remains under active investigation, police shared in a press release. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Lake Havasu City Police Department at 928-855-1171.
If you or someone you know is in crisis, please call or text 988 to reach the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. The previous Lifeline phone number (1-800-273-8255) will always remain available.
