Actor Johnny Lewis, famous for his role on "Sons of Anarchy," has been found dead outside a home in Los Angeles, according to breaking reports. Police have still been unable to confirm the exact circumstances surrounding the death.

According to police, officers responded to the report of a woman screaming after discovering Lewis' body along with the body of an 81-year-old woman. Lewis was found outside in the driveway, while the older woman, identified as Katherine Davis, was found inside her home.

"He appeared to have died from some type of fall, either from the stairway, or from the balcony or from one of the roofs," LAPD Commander Andrew Smith told ABC News.

"The best we're piecing together now is that it appears that some type of altercation occurred inside of the house, resulting in the death of the woman. Then this individual ran outside, had an altercation with a couple of neighbors, ran back into the house and by the time we got here, he had fallen or had somehow died on the driveway," Smith added.

Lewis, 28, is now considered to be a suspect in the homicide of Davis, along with the beating of a neighbor and handyman. He appeared on the hit series "Sons of Anarchy" from 2008 to 2009; before that, he starred on "The O.C." and "American Dreams." Fans have already begun mourning the loss of Lewis, taking to Twitter and Facebook to express their condolences.

"RIP Johnny Lewis. Half-Sack will forever live on with your #SAMCRO family. You will be missed," tweeted Charlie Hunnam Fan.
