New details about Jo Mersa Marley's cause of death have been revealed.
According to documents from the Miami-Dade Medical Examiner's Office, obtained by Rolling Stone, Marley died of "acute asthma exacerbation" after being infected by a common cold virus.
The report says the 31-year-old grandson of reggae icon Bob Marley and son of Grammy Award-winning musician Stephen Marley was found "unresponsive" inside his vehicle in the parking lot of a Ross Dress for Less store on December 26 last year.
He was pronounced dead after officers attempted to administer CPR at the scene.
The Medical Examiner's Office said Marley had a history of asthma, bronchitis and pneumonia and had not been taking his asthma medication at the time of his death. According to the report, he also visited a Florida hospital in March 2022 for a chest abscess.
