The body of Growing Pains star Andrew Koenig was found in a Vancouver park Thursday, the victim of a suicide.
"My son took his own life," his father, Walter Koenig, said in an emotional news conference in the park.
The actor's body was found about 11:30 a.m. in a heavily wooded area just off a bridle path in 1,000-acre Stanley Park, a favorite place for Koenig to frequent during his visits to Vancouver.
The body was found by a private search team of his family and friends. His father was in the midst of searching when he received a cell phone call from other searchers who discovered the body.
"I went to the site," Walter Koenig said, adding that's when he discovered his son had committed suicide.
