BREAKING NEWS: Actor Heath Ledger found dead

Updating a post from earlier today:

Heath Ledger, 28, was found dead today in a New York apartment he'd been renting (not Mary Kate Olson's apartment as previously reported by the New York Times).

A masseuse with whom Ledger had an appointment arrived at the apartment and was let in by a housekeeper. When no one answered the door of the actor's room, the housekeeper and the masseuse opened the bedroom and found Ledger naked and unconscious on a bed, with pills scattered around his body.

Police said they did not suspect foul play, and earlier reports of suicide have been denied by family and friends claiming that the "Brokeback Mountain" star was suffering from pneumonia.

Police discovered presciption medication around the apartment and the pills around Ledger's body were sleeping pills. In reading a previous New York Times article, the insomnia factor is a little eery:

"'Last week I probably slept an average of two hours a night,' he said. 'I couldn’t stop thinking. My body was exhausted, and my mind was still going.' One night he took an Ambien, which failed to work. He took a second one and fell into a stupor, only to wake up an hour later, his mind still racing." - New York Times, Nov. 4, 2007

An autopsy is scheduled for tomorrow. More updates as information becomes available.
