'Sons of Anarchy' Actor Johnny Lewis Dead After Allegedly Killing A Woman In Her Home

Sons of Anarchy actor Johnny Lewis, is dead after he allegedly fell of the roof of an 81-year-old’s woman’s home, who was also found beaten to death in her home.

TMZ reports that police are investigating whether it was Lewis who broke into the Los Feliz home of the elderly woman, killed her, and then fell of the roof to his death.

Authorities believe that Lewis was on some sort of drugs, maybe PCP or Crystal meth, attacked the woman then attacked two men with a 2’x4′ piece of wood, injuring one of them.

Law enforcement says that the men he fought, claimed that Lewis appeared to have super-human strength and was “phenomenally strong.” Multiple sources say they heard a woman screaming and saw one man attack two other men before he climbed onto the roof.  He was later found dead in the driveway to the home.

Neighbors reported that Lewis use to rent a room from the 81-year old woman, but he wasn’t currently living there. Police believe that Lewis is the sole suspect in the woman’s murder and are not looking for any other suspects. The 28-year old actor was known for his role Sons of Anarchy and The O.C. and once dated Katy Perry.

Lewis death is unfortunate, but not shocking as Kurt Sutter wrote:

not sure if folks know this yet, but johnny lewis (halfsack) died last night. the sad irony of it happening two days after opie’s death is not lost on me. it was a tragic end for an extremely talented guy, who unfortunately had lost his way. i wish i could say that i was shocked by the events last night, but i was not. i am deeply sorry that an innocent life had to be thrown into his destructive path. yes, it’s day or mourning, but it’s also a day of awareness and gratitude. sadly, some of us carry the message by dying.”
