According to the Los Angeles Medical Examiner’s report obtained by TMZ, the “Top Gun: Maverick” actor’s death was a result of a stab wound to the torso, with “neck compression” being an added factor.
Neck compressions are often caused by age-related wear and tear in the nerves of the neck when they’re squeezed or put under abnormal pressure, per the National Institutes of Health.
