Son of actor Michael McKean dies of suspected heroin overdose Colin McKean, the 36-year-old son of actor Michael McKean, has been identified as one of two men who died of suspected heroin overdoses in Ashland last week. Comment DailyTidings.com Writer Posted Dec. 10, 2012 at 1:10 PM Posted Dec. 10, 2012 at 1:10 PM » Social News Colin McKean, the 36-year-old son of actor Michael McKean, has been identified as one of two men who died of suspected heroin overdoses in Ashland last week. Ashland police Deputy Chief Corey Falls said Colin McKean was found dead by a family member at his home in the 700 block of North Laurel Street shortly after 8 p.m. on Dec. 3. Police said evidence found at the scene suggested McKean died of a heroin overdose. Falls said today police are still awaiting laboratory results to confirm the cause of death. The other man, identified as 34-year-old Jordan Roth, was found dead by a family friend 24 hours later in the 2400 block of Siskiyou Boulevard. Police are investigating whether the two cases are connected. "That's one thing our detectives look into," Falls said. "Just because these happened on back-to-back nights, it makes it odd, but our detectives just try to gather information." Michael McKean and his wife, Annette O'Toole, own the property on Laurel Street, according to Jackson County property records. Both longtime actors, Michael McKean is probably best known for his role as Lenny on the TV sitcom "Laverne and Shirley" and as David St. Hubbins in the 1984 movie "This is Spinal Tap." Colin McKean, whose mother is Susan Russell, was a production assistant for the movies "The Kiss," "A Mighty Wind" and "Temptation," and had acting roles in "Vampire Clan" and in his father's "A Spinal Tap Reunion: The 25th Anniversary London Sell-Out." — Mandy Valencia DailyTidings.com Writer Posted Dec. 10, 2012 at 1:10 PM » Comment or view comments Reader Reaction » STAY INFORMED Email NewsLetter Sign Up Today Sign up for our newsletter and have the top headlines from your community delivered right to your inbox. calendar Connect with DailyTidings.com Facebook Twitter RSS Back to top Reader Services Reader Services home Subscriptions Subscriber controls Contact us Submissions Photos Events Letters to the editor Corrections Alerts Email alerts RSS feeds Text Alerts Advertise Media Kit Home Products and services Ad rates Advertising contacts Mail Tribune Daily Tidings The Nickel Shop Our Valley Blogs Stay Informed Email newsletter Sign Up Today Sign up for our newsletter and have the top headlines from your community delivered right to your inbox.
