Wolf Blitzer on CNN about 4:40 est is reporting that Heath Ledger has died at the age of 28 in New York. Reports came in to CNN via the NYPD.

Heath Ledger reportedly broke up with his super model girlfriend on December 31 of 2007.  He was then rumored to be partying with other un-named super models.  There is no word on the nature of his death yet.

Wikipedia has him listed as dead according to the NYPD as well.  He was reportedly found dead in a Soho apartment.  He had one daughter, Matilda Rose who was born in October of 2005 to actress Michelle William.

Rumors/Speculations/breaking reports

Some reports now saying that pills 'all around him' found near his bed.  A housekeeper let a masseuse in for a scheduled appointment.  The masseuse found the dead star.

Address of Heath Ledger's Death

421 Broome Street, New York (SoHo), NY

The apartment was previously reported as his, now reported as Mary-Kate Olsen's apartment,( who is to say what is real at this point)   Question if it was his housekeeper and masseuse, why would they go to Mary-Kate Olsen's apartment?

TMZ is reporting "We're told when paramedics responded, the actor(Heath Ledger) was in full cardiac arrest. They attempted to perform CPR on him, but were unsuccessful. He was pronounced dead at the scene."

TMZ after reporting that it was Mary-Kate Olsen's apartment, NOW claims to have a credible source that says the apartment has nothing to do with Mary-Kate Olsen.

Final Update

OK, I'm not following this any more.  I clicked over to TMZ chasing a weird Wikipedia entry and saw them streaming the removal of his body.  Too sick for me that.
