Oscar winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman was found dead on Sunday at a New York apartment. A friend of Hoffman discovered Hoffman in his bathroom with a needle stuck in his left forearm at 11:30 AM and called 911 immediately. The Police suspect Hoffman died because of over dose of drug as they found two envelopes of Heroin near this dead body and five such empty envelopes in the thrash bin.

However, the reason for Hoffman death are yet to be out as the medical report  is due on Monday evening. The Hollywood Industry was shocked on hearing Hoffman's death news. In the year 2006, Hoffman claimed in a interview to a Television channel that he gave up drugs and alochol, but the news of drugs found near his dead body say he hasn't given up them. Hoffman is survived by his children Tallulah (7), Willa (5) and Cooper (10) and his longtime partner, Mimi O'Donnell, artistic director of New York's Labyrinth Theater Company.
