Good Afternoon, this is KTLA Channel 5 in Sunny Los Angeles, California, and I'm Rebecca Harris. In breaking news, the body of famous Oceanic Airlines lawyer Daniel Avery was found in his apartment in downtown Los Angeles, the victim of an apparent suicide. Police are still unable to officially say whether or not this was a homicide, however, police are stated as leaning towards suicide as the cause. Police have notified Avery's family, and they are expected to arrive in Los Angeles by the end of the night.
Police released information this morning that Avery's body was found hanging in the bathroom of his posh Los Angeles penthouse, suspended from the shower rod. A suicide note was found, however, police have not released a full transcript of what was said in the letter, only stating that there were numbers and strange markings; whether or not these numbers suggest phone numbers is not known. A full transcript is expected to be released as soon as tomarrow morning. The LAPD also released that the manner in which Avery was found was not consitered suspicious, however, toxicology is pending to confirm or deny the exisitance of narcotics in Avery's blood. Oceanic Airlines has been notified of the death, and express their full condolences to the Avery Family. Once police release more information on Mr. Avery's death, we will have it live for you. Daniel Avery is survived by his mother and his father, along with his fiancee, Ana-Lucia Cortez. Services are scheduled for some time next week.
