Last week, Patrick came under fire for using inappropriate language in a video posted on social media, when he challenged rapper Cassper Nyovest to a boxing match.
On Tuesday, he released a public apology to the rapper and everyone affected by his remarks.
“We sincerely ask you to give the family time to process this painful loss. More details will be shared in due course. Thank you,” the statement stated.
