Influencer Brittney \u201cBritt\u201d Horton is mourning the death of her brother, Caleb Bolton, who passed away recently. The 39-year-old mother of three posted a compilation of her younger sibling\u2019s clips and pictures on Instagram to announce the news of his demise.<\/p>\n

In one of her Instagram Stories, Britt Horton wrote:\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cWe lost my little brother this past weekend and I truly cannot believe this is real and that I\u2019m having to say these words\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Caleb Bolton was a painting contractor who owned and operated B&C Epoxy in Bakersfield, California. He was also listed as the CEO of Hb Epoxy, Inc., which he partnered with Brittney\u2019s husband, Chad Horton.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Caleb also had a YouTube channel and Instagram account, Your Paint Coach, that focused on providing painting tutorials for DIY projects.<\/p>\n

While the channel remained inactive for the past few years, its description read:\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cHere to coach you through all of your DIY paint projects!! From interior to exterior, from prep to paint! With over 17 years of professional painting experience, It\u2019s time for me to share all of the best tips and tricks of the trade!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to unverified obituaries and reports, Bolton died in an accident in Bakersfield.<\/p>\n

No mainstream and credible media outlet has confirmed that Caleb was involved in a traffic collision.\u00a0<\/p>\n

KBAK-TV has reported that an individual died in a car crash after colliding with a tractor on Sunday, November 30.<\/p>\n

California Highway Patrol (CHP) confirmed that the accident occurred during the early hours, and officers reported to the scene around 4:32 am.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The car reportedly rear-ended the tractor, leading to the driver\u2019s death. CHP did not confirm the identity of the deceased driver.\u00a0<\/p>\n
