A man has been charged for selling counterfeit opioid pills to Mac Miller just two days before he died of an overdose. 

A 28-year-old man from Los Angeles, Cameron James Pettit was reportedly arrested on Wednesday (US Time) and would appear in court later on in the day.

The man is reportedly accused of selling rapper Mac Miller counterfeit oxycodone pills that contained fentanyl. 

A toxicology report following Mac Miller's death showed that he accidentally overdosed on alcohol, cocaine and fentanyl. 

According to reports from TMZ there are two other people authorities believe sold Miller counterfeit drugs, but it's unknown whether they have or will be detained or charged in relation to Mac Miller's death.
