'Twilight' actor Gregory Tyree Boyce found dead in Las Vegas at 30; cops say no foul play
"Twilight" actor Gregory Tyree Boyce has died. He was 30.
Clark County Coroner John Fudenberg confirmed to USA TODAY Monday that Boyce and his 27-year-old girlfriend, Natalie Adepoju, were pronounced dead in a Las Vegas residence on May 13 around 5 p.m.
Their cause of death is pending toxicology results, Fudenberg added.
The bodies were found after police were summoned to a report of a dead body in a residential complex several miles east of the Las Vegas Strip, police said Tuesday.
Las Vegas Police Officer Larry Hadfield, a department spokesman, said the deaths were not considered to be the result of a criminal act.
Boyce is best known for playing Tyler Crowley in 2008's "Twilight." Crowley is a classmate of Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) who nearly hits Swan with his van, only for her to be saved by vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson).

In December, Boyce reflected on his life in celebration of his 30th birthday.
