Sage Stallone was found dead in his Los Angeles apartment – with reports suggesting that prescription pills were found at the scene.
It is understood the actor did not leave a suicide note, leading police to believe he killed himself accidentally.
Last night, Rocky star Sly, 66 – who co-starred with Sage in Rocky V – was struggling to come to terms with the news.
His spokesman Michelle Bega said: “Sylvester is devastated and grief-stricken over the sudden loss of his son.
“His compassion and thoughts are with Sage’s mother Sasha. He was a very talented and wonderful young man. His loss will be felt forever.”
Emergency services were called to the 36-year-old actor’s home at 3pm on Friday. Medics tried to revive him for 25 minutes but he was pronounced dead at the scene.
A postmortem will be held in the next 24 hours.
Police said they found Sage – who was one of two sons from Sly’s marriage to Sasha Czack – while responding to a “welfare check”.
But Sage’s lawyer George Braunstein claimed he was found by a housekeeper who then made the 911 call.
The lawyer added: “I think it was probably some sort of accident. He was in good spirits, working on all kinds of projects.” Source:http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk
