Chapman, 23, a former child actor, was pronounced dead at Yorkshire Wildlife Park near Doncaster after entering the tiger's pen on Saturday. His family say he had suffered significant mental illness for years, and they've asked people to stop sharing footage after Donald Trump reposted a clip. City of Doncaster Council, which licenses the park, has begun a health and safety investigation.
