Actor Robin Williams Is Dead at 63
Actor Robin Williams
died this morning in California, according to the Marin County
Sheriff’s Office-Coroner Division and his press representative. He was
63.
"Robin Williams passed away this morning," the actor's rep Mara Buxbaum
said in a statement tonight. "He has been battling severe depression of
late. This is a tragic and sudden loss. The family respectfully asks for
their privacy as they grieve during this very difficult time."
According a statement from the Marin County Coroner, they received a 911
call at 11:55 a.m., that Williams had been located unconscious and not
breathing inside his residence in Tiburon, California. "The male
subject, pronounced deceased at 12:02 pm has been identified as Robin
McLaurin Williams."
"An investigation into the cause, manner, and circumstances of the death
is currently underway by the Investigations and Coroner Divisions of
the Sheriff’s Office. Preliminary information developed during the
investigation indicates Mr. Williams was
last seen alive at his residence, where he resides with his wife, at
approximately 10:00 pm on August 10, 2014."
"At this time, the Sheriff’s Office Coroner Division suspects the death
to be a suicide due to asphyxia, but a
comprehensive investigation must be completed before a final
determination is made. A forensic examination is currently scheduled for
August 12, 2014 with subsequent toxicology testing to be conducted."
The actor won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his role in "Mrs.
Doubtfire" and appeared in dozens of films including "Good Morning
Vietnam," "Good Will Hunting," "Dead Poets Society," and "Patch Adams."
