Authorities in Miami investigating death of Jordan Petrocchi after Rolling Loud music fest

Authorities are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding Petrocchi's death and are waiting "on the results of the toxicology report."

Rolling Loud told NBC Miami there were "no signs of a fight, drugs or heat-related illnesses," although many users on Twitter believe he died from heatstroke, as Miami-Dade has been suffering from hot temperatures over the summer months.

He was on track to graduate from Clemson University in South Carolina in August, per a GoFundMe page created by his friends and family.

"Thank you for your support, and may Jordan's memory forever shine brightly in our hearts," it read.
