Michael K. Williams has reportedly died from a suspected heroin overdose after he was found by his nephew earlier this week. The Wire” star was found face-down by his nephew inside his penthouse in Brooklyn, New York, on Monday afternoon after he went to check on him at the luxury complex because no one had heard from the 54-year-old actor for several days.
His nephew raised the alarm and a doorman subsequently called emergency services, reportedly telling the phone operator the “12 Years A Slave” star was “unresponsive” and “felt cold”. Paramedics rushed to the scene, but the actor was pronounced dead at 2:12 pm, according to the New York Post newspaper.
Michael’s cause of death is not yet known, but it has been claimed heroin was found on his kitchen table and drug paraphernalia was discovered elsewhere in the apartment. A police source told the publication: “No foul play is indicated. [There was] no forced entry, and the apartment was in order.”
However, Staci DuPont – who is married to the nephew who found Michael’s body – doesn’t believe the star’s death is related to drugs.
She told the DailyMail.com: “That’s not factual. We don’t have anything more to say at this time …
He meant everything to us. He was a wonderful, beautiful, loving person. He’d give you the shirt off his back.
“He was always there to help anybody who needed him, whether family or friends. It’s a great loss to us.” Michael was best known for his role as Omar Little in HBO’s “The Wire” and Albert ‘Chalky’ White on the series “Boardwalk Empire” HBO said in a statement: “We are devastated to learn of the passing of Michael K. Williams, a member of the HBO family for more than 20 years.
“While the world is aware of his immense talents as an artist, we knew Michael as a dear friend who was beloved by all who had the privilege to work with him. We send our deepest condolences to his family for this immeasurable loss. Michael is survived by his son Elijah.

Music mogul Don Jazzy has recently opened up about why he remains unmarried despite his success and popularity. The Nigerian producer and entrepreneur, known for founding Mavin Records and launching the careers of numerous artists, shared his thoughts on why he hasn’t taken the plunge into marriage just yet.
Don Jazzy explained that his demanding career has played a significant role in his decision to stay single. His dedication to building his music empire has left little time for personal relationships, and he admitted that he has often prioritized work over his love life. The music industry, with its relentless pace and constant demands, has made it challenging for him to focus on settling down.
The producer also mentioned that his high standards and desire for a meaningful connection have made him cautious about entering into marriage. He believes that marriage is a serious commitment that requires time, effort, and the right partner, and he doesn’t want to rush into it until he’s certain he’s found someone who aligns with his values and lifestyle.
Despite his single status, Don Jazzy remains optimistic about the future, expressing that he is open to the idea of marriage when the time is right. For now, he continues to focus on his career and personal growth, with the belief that everything will fall into place when it’s meant to.
