Longtime Portland musician Jon Steuer, better known in the local punk scene as Jonny P. Jewels, has died, according to multiple reports on social media. He was 33 years old.

A cause of death has not yet been confirmed.

Born in Escondido, Calif., Steuer was a child actor whose credits include the children's sports comedy Little Giants and Star Trek: The Next Generation, where he portrayed Worf's son. He had a starring role on the '90s sitcom Grace Under Fire, but the experience caused him to quit acting at the age of 12.

What the hell is with all these people dying so young?

Was he the much older version of Alexander? Brian Bonsall played Alexander when he was a boy on TNG.
When Alexander first appeard on the show that's Johnny he was in TNG.

It looks like drug abuse or suicide and mental illness that's why these guys die so young. He was restauraner which is not an easy business to run, especially these days.

Probably a combination of these things.

It is always the same combination of things. The other Alexander actor (Brian Bonsall) has the same problems:

I don't even remember Jonny's Alexander.

I watched an episode with Worf's son when he was a bit older recently. A DS9 episode where his son joins the Klingon military. Was that still the same guy or a different actor?

I think that was a different guy. The only one I remember is Brian Bonsall (in the picture above). I don't remember there being another Worf's son except the older Alexander in the military. Was that the actor that died?

Sexual abuse?
