The LAPD's Robbery-Homicide Division is leading the investigation, and the department's senior leadership is responding to the scene.
According to a neighbor, actors Billy Crystal and Larry David arrived separately at the home after police. The two comedians stayed briefly before departing, and Crystal "looked like he was about to cry," the neighbor said.
