He was the patriarch of the Harrison family and the driving force behind the popular History channel program.

Harrison’s death was announced this morning on the Gold & Silver Pawn Facebook page.

The announcement said Harrison “was surrounded by loving family this past weekend and went peacefully.”

He was 77 years old.

2. A Las Vegas teen was killed and another injured last night after an ATV rolled over east of the valley.

The teens were riding the all-terrain vehicle around 9 p.m. near Hollywood Boulevard.

Police say the vehicle hit a ditch, launched into the air, and threw the 15-year-old driver and 16-year-old passenger.

Both were airlifted to Sunrise Hospital, where the passenger died.

The 15-year-old suffered moderate injuries and is expected to survive.

The crash remains under investigation.

Players can’t officially sign until July 1.
