Anton Yelchin, known for roles in “Star Trek” and “Alpha Dog,” died early Sunday morning in a freak accident, a spokeswoman confirmed to Variety. He was 27.

“Actor Anton Yelchin was killed in a fatal traffic collision early this morning,” said a statement from his representative. “His family requests you respect their privacy at this time.”

According to TMZ, which first reported the news, he was pinned by his own car at his Studio City home. Friends apparently became concerned when Yelchin did not show up for a rehearsal set for Saturday night. They found him at his home pinned between his car and a brick mailbox.
