ORLANDO, Fla. — Comedian and actor Bob Saget was found dead lying face up on his bed in a luxury hotel room in Florida with no signs of trauma, according to a sheriff’s office report released Monday.
There were no signs of foul play, and the room itself was in order, “with items owned by Mr. Saget on the nightstand, television stand, closet and bathroom,” according to the report from the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.
Saget’s left arm was across his chest and his right arm was resting on his bed when deputies and paramedics arrived Sunday at his room at the Ritz Carlton in Orlando and pronounced him dead, the report said.
AdvertisementSaget had been scheduled to check out of his room on Sunday, and when family members were unable to get in touch with him they contacted the hotel’s security team, which sent a security officer to his room, the report said.

‘Full House’ cast reunites to ‘grieve as a family’ over Bob Saget’s death
Bob Saget’s ‘Full House’ co-stars collectively issued a statement Monday: ‘He was a brother to us guys, a father to us girls and a friend to all of us.’
Jan. 10, 2022When the security officer, Jody Lee Harrison, entered the room, all the lights were off. He found Saget on the bed and cold to the touch, Harrison told deputies, according to the report.
Harrison checked Saget for breathing and a pulse, and when he found none, he had the hotel’s security dispatch call 911, the report said.
Advertisement“We have an unresponsive guest in a room,” an unidentified man from the hotel said in a 911 call. “Not responsive. No breathing and no pulse.”
Saget was declared dead shortly before 4:20 pm ET. His room key indicated he had entered the room a little before 2:20 a.m. ET, according to the report.

‘I made him a hugger’: How Bob Saget created the defining TV dad of his generation
In 2016, Saget reflected on playing “Full House” patriarch Danny Tanner, and what it meant for the character to become “part of a culture.”
Jan. 10, 2022His body was sent to the local medical examiner’s office, which said in an email that it could take up to four months from the date of the exam to complete an autopsy report.
Saget was best known for his role as beloved single dad Danny Tanner on the sitcom “Full House” and as the wisecracking host of “America’s Funniest Home Videos.” He was 65.
Saget was in Florida as part of his “I Don’t Do Negative Comedy Tour.” After warm audience receptions to his gigs Friday in Orlando and Saturday in the Ponte Vedra Beach resort area, he celebrated online.
