Heath Ledger dies at age 28

[anysia]

AUSTRALIAN actor Heath Ledger has died in New York of an apparent drug overdose. He was found in his bedroom by his housekeeper, the floor strewn with pills.

Edit: It seems the 'strewn pills' was a bit of a headline grabbing, and totally untrue. He was taking an over the counter sleep aid, and had been recently recovering from pneumonia. These two things, combined with his taking an anti-anxiety prescription seems to have been the cause of death. Not suicidal, not accidental partying drug overdose, but a tragic accident.
