LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Actor Corey Haim has died, Access Hollywood has
confirmed.
The Los Angeles County Coroner's office confirmed the actor died at
2:15 AM on Wednesday at St. Joseph's Medical Center in Burbank, Calif.
The Los Angeles Police Department said they received a call from the

He was transported from the home he shared with his mother, Judy, in
Toluca Hills, Calif. to the hospital.
Ed Winter, LA County Coroner's Office Assistant Chief, told reporters
that Haim's mother had called paramedics when her son collapsed in the
early morning hours.
"This morning at about 1:30...Corey Haim's mom found him. He got up
out of bed and had been feeling ill for the last couple of days. As he
got out of bed, he felt a little weak and went down to the floor on
his knees. He's had flu-like symptoms. She called paramedics. They
responded and transported him to the hospital where he was pronounced
[dead] at 2:15 this morning," Winter said.
Authorities found four prescription drug bottles inside the apartment
he shared with his mother, but no illegal drugs, according to Winter.

Corey was one of the cutest boys who ever graced the silver screen. We
almost got to see ALL of him in 'Lukas'. That was when he first
grabbed my attention. Other people's too apparently, there were
rumors. He had a troubled teen life and young adulthood. I don't know
if he ever got things worked out completely.
He will be missed.
