CBS News and Fox News are reporting comedian Robin Williams is dead.

CBS says the cause was suicide. More details to follow.

From TMZ.com:

Robin Williams has committed suicide.

The comedian killed himself in Tiburon, in Northern California.

According to the Marin County Sheriff's Office ... authorities found William's body inside his home. They say he was found unresponsive.

He was unconscious and not breathing and the coroner suspects suicide due to asphyxia.

Williams was last seen alive at his house at 10 PM Sunday night.

Williams went back to rehab last month to focus on his sobriety. We're told alcohol was an issue.

Williams struggled with cocaine and alcohol abuse in the early '80s but was sober for 20 years.

Williams was 63.

I just saw. How awful.

A man too young to die at any age.

I hate to hear that a man who brought so much joy to the world couldn't find any for himself. I wish health services would treat depression like the emotional cancer that it is and devote just as much attention and effort into stamping it out.

So sad. So effing sad.

Oh no.

I loved his laughing face.

Robin, I'm sorry it was so hard for you but you sure brought happiness to a lot of moments and a lot of people.

Find peace.

For a man who brought so much laughter and joy, how heartbreaking to realize that he must never have been laughing on the inside. So incredibly sad.

So shocked and saddened to read this. I know he's primarily known as a funny guy, but my favorite movie of his was Bicentennial Man.

Well, that sucks. I heard back in the 1990s he was a "friend of Bill W."

BenPanced · Aug 11, 2014

May he find the peace he sought in this world.

Xelebes · Aug 11, 2014

This one was a shocker. So many childhood movies with him starring.

RIP.

It's just too horrible.

Perks · Aug 11, 2014

He was so great in so many things. A huge talent. A very sad loss.

It's funny where the mind goes. The genie in Aladdin. "Captain, my Captain." The Birdcage. Awakenings. Mrs. Doubtfire.

So much wonderfulness.

Haggis · Aug 11, 2014

We can all finally agree on something. What a damn shame. RIP, Robin.
