The Boulder County Sheriff’s Office confirmed in apress releasethat deputies responded to a 911 call to the 1400 block of Ridge Road, where Wilcock resided, around 10:44 a.m. on April 20, regarding a possible mental health crisis.

When deputies arrived at approximately 11:02 a.m., they encountered a male subject outside a residence holding a weapon.

The man then used the weapon on himself. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The release did not name Wilcock, citing the need to notify next of kin, but many were quick to note that this is the exact block he lived on.

Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna subsequently confirmed Wilcock’s passing on X, writing, “We just learned of the tragic passing of David Wilcock. We are praying for his family and loved ones and the millions of lives he impacted.”

Wilcock, 53, was a well-known figure in ufology and alternative research circles. He authored multiple New York Times bestsellers, appeared regularly on the History Channel’s Ancient Aliens, and served as Director of Advanced Technology for Stavatti Aerospace.

Just two days before his death, Wilcock went live on YouTube and made chilling remarks about a pattern of deaths in his community.

“I’m excited to be here, you know, every day that I have on earth is a gift and a blessing, and I’m very grateful for that, because frankly, people are disappearing. Scientists are going missing,” he said. “It’s a little bit scary.”
