Remains of actor Charles Levin found; suspected to be dead

Actor Charles Levin, 70, went missing from his house in Grants Pass on 8th July 2019 where his son did not hear from him for several days. And now, as per the latest reports, his body remains have been found in a remote area of Oregon.

According to a report in The Independent, the local department of public safety issued a public appeal about his whereabouts two days later, saying that he was “almost always in the company of his fawn-colored pug dog, Boo Boo Bear”.

Search and rescue teams narrowed the search area on Friday after requesting an emergency “ping” of Levin’s mobile phone.

However, it was not until Saturday evening that a local resident found his orange 2012 Fiat car in “a very remote and almost impassable road”.

State troopers discovered Levin’s dog dead inside the car but saw no sign of the actor.

Human remains were eventually found a few hours later after a detailed search of the steep and rugged terrain nearby. “Based on the circumstances, there is a high probability that the remains are those of Charles Levin,” the Grants Pass Department of Public Safety said in a statement.

“The final identification of the remains will be completed by the Medical Examiner.” Charles is best known for his roles in Seinfeld and mockumentary, This is Spinal Tap.
