—–

Johnny Lewis, a 28-year-old actor from such shows as Sons of Anarchy and The O.C., was found dead yesterday and his body was discovered at the same L.A. property as an 81-year-old woman he’s suspected of murdering.

Among his acting roles, Lewis is best known for dating pop star Katy Perry in 2006.

As reported by TMZ:

According to our law enforcement sources, 28-year-old Lewis was found in a driveway Wednesday morning in the Los Feliz neighborhood — and the elderly woman who owned the home was found dead inside … the victim of a homicide. 

According to multiple reports, neighbors heard the 81-year-old woman screaming … and then saw a young man outside her home attack 2 other people with a piece of wood … before he climbed onto the roof. 

It’s unclear if the young man, now identified as Lewis, jumped or fell from the roof to his death. Lewis was renting a room from the 81-year-old homeowner. 

Law enforcement sources tell us Lewis is the sole suspect in the woman’s murder, and they are not looking for other possible suspects.

Stay tuned as this bizarre story continues to play out…
