From Fox News: The cause of death for actor Peter Greene, who was found in his New York City apartment in December, was an accidental gunshot wound, the New York City Chief Medical Examiner office said on Wednesday, according to reports.
The 60-year-old “Pulp Fiction” star was found with a “gunshot wound of left axilla with injury of brachial artery,” the medical examiner said, referring to his left armpit, according to People magazine.
The brachial artery is the major blood vessel that supplies blood to the upper arm, elbow, forearm and hand, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
His manner of death was determined to be accidental.
The ME’s office did not provide any other details.
Greene’s manager, Gregg Edwards, told Fox News in December that Greene died in his Manhattan apartment.
“He was just a terrific guy,” Edwards told The Associated Press. “Arguably one of the greatest character actors on the planet; Has worked with everybody.”
Neighbors in his building had reported hearing loud Christmas music from his home starting on Dec. 10, prompting them to call for a wellness check on Dec. 12.
