“Growing Pains” actor Andrew Koenig committed suicide by hanging himself from a tree in Vancouver’s Stanley Park about a mile from downtown Vancouver, a source “close to the investigation” told E! News.
His father, actor Walter Koenig, who starred as Pavel Chekov in the television series “Star Trek,” said Thursday that his son took his own life.
Koenig was discovered in a densely wooded area of native pines and brush, so deep into the forest off Stanely Park’s Bridle Path, one of dozens of trails in the 1,000-acre area, that it appeared to the search party that “Andrew didn’t want to be found,” the source said.
