SAN FRANCISCO — Dave Slick, the Chaturbate broadcaster who later shot for Falcon Studios Group and its NakedSword division as an exclusive, passed away this weekend in Chicago, according to reports.
Slick, who was named 2017 XBIZ Best Male Cam Model, was found unconscious and not breathing in a Qdoba bathroom in Chicago’s Loop at 11:35 a.m. on Friday
The 26-year-old Slick, a Scottsdale, Ariz., resident, had flown to the Windy City to attend Exxxotica Chicago in suburban Rosemont, Ill.
Once found in the bathroom, according to reports, Slick was taken to nearby Rush University Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead less than 15 minutes later.
Rosemont Police, Chicago Police and the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office are investigating the death.
Slick, with his good looks and mischievous smile, towered in at 6’4” and had an athletic physique. He was a crowdpleaser with Chaturbate fans, along with fans checking him out in adult films.
An outpouring of grief and sympathy was made on social media last night after TheSword initially published the report of his death.
Studio owner and performer Trenton Ducati said: “I just heard the news about our dear friend @itsdaveslick my heart hurts and I feel very sad. My heart goes out to his family and all those close to him.” Ducati recorded a video, as well.
