A star from CHILD named Benji Gregory was found dead in his car.
He was 46 years old.
Gregory was perhaps best known for his part as Brian Tanner on the hit TV show Alf.
Rebecca, his sister, told TMZ that he was discovered dead in his car at a Peoria, Arizona Chase Bank.
Rebecca told TMZ, “their family is grieving a great loss and appreciate everyone’s thoughts and kind words.”
It hasn’t been proven what killed Gregory, but people who knew him well think he went to deposit a check and passed out in his car, where he died of heat stroke.
Gregory’s service dog, Hans, died in the car with him.
