His body was pulled out of the water by Los Angeles Police Department, California Highway Patrol and U.S. Coast Guard officials.

[Updated at 9:42 p.m.: Investigators found a note in his car, which was parked on the bridge. That note listed contact information. They later found a suicide note at his office. An earlier version of this story said the suicide note was found in his car.]

Law enforcement sources said several witnesses saw Scott, the brother of director Ridley Scott, climb over a fence on the bridge and jump off.

The coroner's office identified him Sunday evening.

Scott was a respected action-movie director who also made "Enemy of the State," "Beverly Hills Cop II" and "Crimson Tide."

well bye .. musta lost all his money in penny stocks .....

WTF, man the dude was talented director

My first thought was him tiring of living in his brother's shadow. But who knows?

RIP

he wasnt the level of his brother but come on he made Top Gun and produced a shitoad of movies. That alone makes him a decent contributor to the movie world and American culture.

wtf, this guy was great.

True Romance is one of my top 10.

Damn, he made some good movies. RIP.

:BS: When did he meet Tom Brady & what year did he quit smoking? (First in.)

RIP

damn

Chiefs Fan?

Thank you for "The Last Boy Scout".

Man on Fire with Denzel Washington was a hell of a good movie.

Damn this is a shame. R.I.P.

concussions have finally taken their toll.

TMZ reporting that he had inoperable brain cancer

Yea, i was wondering if it was going to be something like this. Maybe the suicide note will leak?

That sucks. I think I'd definitely prefer the bridge option.

Maybe the two best things he ever directed...

Classic

The guy had brain cancer and went out like a badasss. RIP

****ing Coward, I hope Bald Brian goes off on him on tomorrow's Adam Carolla Show.

Spy Game is another one he was involved in that I thought was great.

I read on Jalopnik that he was looking at making a series with his brother about Le Mans drivers that would've been a period drama similar to Mad Men.

Now that would've been badass...

Man, the last boy scout is right up there with The Godfather.
Rip

Explains everything.

Guess Drudge is reporting now he didn't have brain cancer:shrug:

I guess at his Fantasy Draft he picked the Chiefs Defense.

I assume that you are joking.

I assume you know nothing about Bald Brian [hint, he's bald].

I guess that bridge was on the highway to the danger zone.

Thanks but I'm still alive

:evil:

I actually forgot about that pic. Now I have to find it.

Nope, nothing. I have never watched the show.
