GARY COLEMAN PASSES

Diminutive former child actor Gary Coleman, known to millions as the star of hit sitcom Diff'rent Strokes, has died after suffering a brain haemorrhage.

Coleman, 42, had been on life support after being hospitalized at the Utah Valley Regional Medical Center on Wednesday. He had slipped into a coma and never regained consciousness.

Coleman suffered a head injury after falling at his home.

Coleman's manager John Alcanter said Coleman died shortly after 12:00 pm local time following a decision to discontinue life support.

"He was removed from life support; soon thereafter, he passed quickly and peacefully. By Gary's bedside were his wife and other close family members," Alcanter said in a statement.

"Thanks to everyone for their well wishing and support during this tragic time. Now that Gary has passed, we know he will be missed because of all the love and support shown in the past couple of days.

"Gary is now at peace and his memory will be kept in the hearts of those who were entertained by him throughout the years."
