Inside Tarzan star Ron Ely's tragic final years after son stabbed his wife to death
Ely's September 29 death, confirmed on Wednesday by his daughter Kirsten, came less than five years after his family was devastated by a series of violent events.
In the Ely family's suit, they said that police had misled in their account of the incident, adding that Cameron had his 'hands up' which is 'the universal act of surrender,' when he first corresponded with deputies - who opened fire 'less than 20 seconds after' he emerged hitting him 22 times. Kirsten told The Associated Press on Wednesday that her father died September 29 at his home in Los Alamos, California, an unincorporated community in Santa Barbara County. 'They first tried to cast a former American football player called Mike Henry but he didn't like chimpanzees and from the moment he got on set, things went south in a hurry,' Ely told London's Daily Express in 2013.
