DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla. — Twenty-one-year-old gay porn performer Dmitri Kane apparently committed suicide Sunday evening, according to reports.
A native of Trenton, N.J., Kane appeared in films for Next Door Casting, PrideStudios.com, Men.com and CollegeDudes.com.
According to the South Florida Gay News, the Broward County (Fla.) Medical Examiner’s office has classified the death as a “suicide.”
“Little is known at this time of his untimely passing,” the South Florida Gay News reported. “Friends who were with him over the weekend were shocked; collectively stating ‘he was entirely happy on Saturday evening. Nothing seemed to be wrong.’
“However, Kane was acknowledged to have dealt with drug issues in his short lifetime. In the past year, he had been living in one of the apartments at the Banyan Treatment Center in Pompano Beach, recognized for their in-patient and outpatient drug treatment programs.”
A mass and burial will be celebrated Saturday at St. Raphael’s Church in Hamilton, N.J.
Kane’s death comes less than a week after the death of another gay porn star, Zac Stevens.
