Actor and comedian Bob Saget was found dead in an Orlando, Florida-area hotel room Sunday, authorities said. He was 65.
The Orange County Sheriff's Office
confirmed his death, which was first reported by
TMZ.
Deputies had responded to a room in the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes, based on a report that someone was unresponsive there, the office said.
Sheriff's officials said in a news release that deputies responded to a “man down call.”
“Detectives have found no signs of foul play or drug use in this case,” the sheriff’s office said. “This is all the information we have for release at this time and we do not anticipate further updates. The Medical Examiner’s Office will ultimately determine cause and manner of death."
Saget, the star of television's "Full House," was "pronounced deceased on scene," the sheriff's office
tweeted.
Saget had three scheduled Florida stops in this month on his “I Don’t Do Negative Tour,” including one Friday in Orlando. He described the performance on
Twitter as “an all new show of standup and music.”
