RIP. Robin Williams :(

Robin Williams dead in apparent suicide

Actor-comedian Robin Williams was found dead on Monday at his home in Northern California from an apparent suicide, the Marin County Sheriff's Office said. He was 63.

The sheriff's coroner's division said it suspects the death was a suicide due to asphyxia, but said the cause of death is still under investigation.

Williams shot to fame through his stand-up comedy and first starring role in the Happy Days spin-off, Mork & Mindy.

He went on to a successful film career, winning the best supporting actor Oscar for Good Will Hunting in 1997. It was his fourth nomination, following Good Morning, Vietnam, The Fisher King, and Dead Poet's Society.

Most recently, he starred in the CBS comedy The Crazy Ones.

Williams, who has struggled with addiction in the past, entered a Minnesota rehabilitation centre to help him maintain sobriety.

His representatives at the time said Williams was not using drugs or alcohol but had gone to the centre to "fine-tune and focus" his sobriety after working a longer-than-usual schedule.
