Heath Ledger is found dead in US

Hollywood actor Heath Ledger has been found dead at a downtown Manhattan
residence, a New York Police Department spokesman has said.


"He was found unconscious at the apartment and pronounced dead," a police
spokeswoman said.

Police are reportedly investigating if the Australian actor, who earned an
Oscar nomination for Brokeback Mountain, died of a drug overdose.

The 28-year-old was found dead in the SoHo flat at around 1530 (2030 GMT).

Police said they did not suspect foul play and that his body had been
discovered surrounded by pills.

'Pills'

"We are investigating the possibility of an overdose," police spokesman Paul
Browne told Reuters news agency. "There were pills within the vicinity of the
bed."

Police said he had been due to have a massage at the flat.

The housekeeper went to tell him the masseuse had arrived and found him dead
on Tuesday afternoon.

In September the Perth-born actor reportedly split from his girlfriend
Michelle Williams, with whom he has a two-year-old daughter, Matilda.

She played his wife in 2005 film Brokeback Mountain.

The film's director Ang Lee said Ledger's performance had been a "miracle" of
acting, echoing a young Marlon Brando.

He won an Oscar nomination for his role as a gay cowboy in the film but the
award went to Philip Seymour Hoffman for his role as Truman Capote.

Ledger is currently starring in I'm Not There, as one of several actors in a
role representing singer Bob Dylan.

The tragic star also plays the Joker in yet-to-be-released Batman film, The
Dark Knight.

He also starred in A Knight's Tale and The Patriot, and played a suicidal son
in Monster's Ball.
