Hunter S Thompson shot himself in the head tonight at his home in Aspen. His son, Juan Thompson found his body. Hunter's wife was not home at the time of the incident. Hunter was only 67 years old.
"Hunter prized his privacy and we ask that his friends and admirers respect that privacy as well as that of his family," Juan Thompson said to the Aspen Daily News.
We love HST and wish him much peace in the afterlife. R.I.P.
