"On April 22, 2026, at approximately 0200 hours, officers with
the Lake Havasu City Police Department were dispatched to a
residence in the 1500 block of Chandler Drive in reference to
a reported deceased individual. Upon arrival, officers located
a male subject who suffered from what appeared to be a
self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. The male was
pronounced deceased on scene and the Lake Havasu City Police

"The body was ultimately turned over to the Mohave County
Medical Examiner's office for further investigation. The male
subject has been identified as Darrell Sheets, a 67-year-old
resident of Lake Havasu City and Darrell's family has been
notified. This incident remains under active investigation, and

the release continued.
Sheets appeared on the long-running reality show "Storage Wars"
from 2010 to 2023, and he also made appearances on "The Tonight
Show With Jay Leno" and on Raechel Ray's show.
The competition series pits teams of buyers against each other as
they vie to amass the most valuable payload from the contents of
storage lockers being auctioned off.
He had suffered a heart attack in 2019 and had retired to Arizona,
where he was running an antique store called Havasu Show Me Your
Junk.
