Daily Mail: 'Storage Wars' star Gunter Nezhoda dies after losing cancer battle

Story from Daily Mail:

'Storage Wars' star Gunter Nezhoda has died aged 67 from complications from lung cancer just six months after he was diagnosed.

Nezhoda died in his sleep in Salt Lake City on Tuesday night with his youngest son Ricky by his side, his elder son and fellow 'Storage Wars' star Rene Nezhoda told TMZ.

Rene said Nezhoda had been diagnosed with lung cancer in September after smoking for 30 years - but the chemotherapy treatment left holes on his lungs.

Nezhoda flew to Utah for an emergency surgery to treat his lungs, but medics said there was nothing more they could do for him, Rene said. 

Rene said Nezhoda's son, Ricky, was with him when he passed away on Tuesday.

Gunter, who was born in Vienna and then lived in Frankfurt, Germany for ten years before moving to Las Vegas in 1990, starred in seven episodes of 'Storage Wars' from 2015-2019.

He was also a movie star and worked on Bass with the musicians Pat Travers, Leslie West, Michael Schenker, George Lynch, and Kevin Dubrow.
