美國喜劇演員羅賓•威廉姆斯死於自殺
Robin Williams, who was found dead at his home near San Francisco, California, the victim of an apparent suicide. He was 63.
U.S. President Barack Obama praised Williams as a "one of a kind" performer who "touched every element of the human spirit."
Local authorities say they believe Williams died from asphyxia, but the exact cause of death is still under investigation.
The entertainer's publicist issued a statement late Monday saying Williams had recently been battling depression. Williams developed a drug and alcohol problem early in his career, and had admitted himself into a rehabilitation facility just a few weeks ago to help him maintain his sobriety.
Williams was a stand-up comedian when he made his television debut in the late 1970s playing an alien on the situation comedy "Mork and Mindy." He moved into motion pictures and won acclaim for numerous roles, including "Mrs. Doubtfire," "Good Morning Vietnam," "Dead Poets Society," and "Good Will Hunting," which earned him an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in 1998.美國喜劇演員羅賓·威廉姆斯在加利福尼亞州舊金山市附近的家中死亡。消息傳來，人們紛紛對這位喜劇演員表示悼念。威廉姆斯看來是死於自殺，終年63歲。
