The youngest son of Kerke Douglas was found dead

In New York, a dead film actor, the youngest son of the Hollywood celebrity Kerke Douglas, Eric Douglas, was found in his apartment, the local police said.

So far, the exact cause of his death is unclear, but doctors suggest that there was an overdose of drugs.

Douglas, born in 1958, suffered from alcoholism and drug use.

Like his half -brother, the famous actor and producer Michael Douglas, Eric tried to make a career in the cinema. He starred in the mid -1980s and early 1990s, but could not achieve the same recognition as his father or Michael. He often had problems with the police, explaining this by the fact that "it is difficult to bear the name of celebrities."
