Mr. Hoffman, 46, was found in an apartment in the West Village around 11:30 a.m. by a friend who had become concerned at not being able to reach Mr. Hoffman, a law enforcement official said.
Investigators found a syringe in his left forearm, at least two plastic envelopes with what appeared to be heroin nearby, and five empty plastic envelopes in a trash bin, the official said.
“It’s pretty apparent that it was an overdose,” the official said. “The syringe was in his arm.”
RIP Philip Seymour Hoffman
I just seen him on the big screen during
