    Missing Seinfeld Actor Charles Levin's (70) Body Believed to be Found

    https://variety.com/2019/tv/news/cha...nd-1203267788/

    Oregon authorities believe they have found the body of the missing ?Seinfeld? actor Charles Levin. He was 70 years old.

    According to Associated Press, Levin?s son reported the actor missing from Grants Pass on July 8. On July 12, search and rescue teams determined a search area in a remote area northeast of Selma with an emergency cellphone ping. Troopers found Levin?s car, with the remains of his dog inside. ?[Levin was] almost always in the company of his fawn-colored pug dog, Boo Boo Bear,? said Grants Pass public safety in a news release. The search and rescue teams later found what they believed to be Levin?s body in the surrounding are.

    Oregon police said in a statement that there is a ?high probability? the remains are Levin?s, but they are waiting on a medical examiner for identification.

    Levin played a mohel, who performs the Jewish ceremonial circumcision, in the 1993 Seinfeld episode ?The Bris.? In the episode, Levin?s character accidentally cuts Jerry?s finger. He also appeared on the television shows ?Alice,? ?The Twilight Zone,? ″Hill Street Blues,? ?L.A. Law,? ?Law & Order,? ?NYPD Blue,? ″Doogie Howser, M.D.,? and ″Night Court.?

    His movie credits include ?Annie Hall,? ?This is Spinal Tap,? ?Manhattan,? and ?The Golden Child.?

    He moved to Grants Pass, Ore. after retiring from acting in the late 1990s.

    Cause of death revealed for Seinfeld actor Charles Levin

    https://pagesix.com/2019/11/10/cause...charles-levin/

    Seinfeld actor Charles Levin died from an accidental fall, a report revealed Sunday — four months after the gruesome discovery of his vulture-picked body in a remote section of Oregon.

    Suicide and foul play were ruled out as new details emerged after the 70-year-old actor was found dead July 8, USA Today reported.

    Levin was driving his orange Fiat when he apparently got lost and stranded near Cave Junction, the report said, adding that the vehicle was eventually discovered about four miles off an asphalt road.

    The abandoned Fiat — which contained the remains of his pug, Boo-Boo Bear — was completely stuck, though there was evidence of attempts to free the car, authorities said.

    Police discovered Levin’s body at the bottom of a ravine, where they believe he fell trying to get help. He was naked without external genitalia present and had been partially-consumed by vultures.

    "There were signs of animal scavenging likely in the form of turkey vultures as there was evidence of bird feces on and around the body," the report stated.

    Levin — who played the Mohel in the 1993 Seinfeld episode The Bris — was best known for portraying Elliot Novak in the CBS sitcom Alice.
