Actor Eddie Hassell Killed Early Sunday Morning In Apparent Carjacking Attempt
''The “Surface” star’s rep confirmed to ET Canada that Hassell died in Texas after being shot in the stomach. He was 30-years-old.
His team said the shooting happened during what appears to be a carjacking “outside his girlfriend’s apartment in Grand Prairie, Tex. at approximately 1 a.m.”
The rep added, “The shooting is currently under investigation, and the motive for the shooting is unclear. There is no suspect in custody. His girlfriend was in her
apartment when it happened, and she didn’t see the assailant.”
Neighbours came to Hassell’s assistance and called emergency services.
Police later confirmed that Hassell suffered gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital. They are asking for tips from anyone who saw the crime take place.''
