Mel Gibson Feels “Terrible” About Apparent Suicide Committed on His Property

Wednesday, the body of a 48-year-old construction worker was found hanging from one of the rafters of a construction site on a property owned by controversial filmmaker/actor Mel Gibson.

“Detectives along with paramedics arrived at the scene and the gentleman was pronounced dead on arrival. Cause of death will be determined by the Los Angeles Coroner’s office,” Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Det. Eddie Brown told E! News.

Based on the state of his body, which was reportedly in “full-body rigor mortis,” authorities believe his death might have occurred on the night before he was discovered. So far, officials say no note was found, and no clear reason for the suicide has been identified.

“There were three additional co-workers there, one of them notified the police,” Brown added. “Nobody lives on the property, it’s only wood framework.”

TMZ.com is reporting that the suicide victim was Michael John Van Dyke, who also worked as a prop foreman for the Psycho remake.
