Police are investigating a fatal stabbing at the home of actor Ron Ely, according to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office.

Was it the chimp?

[quote]an elderly woman is dead and the suspect was shot and killed by deputies. Ely, who played Tarzan in the 60s, is not believed to have been involved.

The American news won't say, but Daily Mail confirms the victim was Ron's wife Valerie.

Who do you think stabbed her?

He had a nice body, you can tell he and the monkey did it, which is why AIDS came about, having sex with gorillas. Malaria was recently confirmed to be a gorilla to human transfer

Was it their son, I thought I heard.

How awful.

Didn't Ely also host Miss America after Bert Parks was shitcanned?

Yes, in 1980 and 1981.

TMZ reporting

The home of Ron Ely, who played Tarzan on TV, is a crime scene after his wife was murdered there ... and police shot and killed the suspect, who might be related to the actor. Santa Barbara Sheriff's deputies responded Tuesday night to a domestic disturbance at Ron's Hope Ranch property, and found an elderly woman dead inside with stab wounds. TMZ has obtained police dispatch audio where a first responder describes an "elderly gentleman" on scene saying his son was somehow involved in the incident.

Law enforcement sources tell us the victim is Ron's wife of 35 years, Valerie Lundeen.

Ron himself was unharmed, but responding deputies searched the premises and found the male suspect, who the Sheriff's Dept. says "presented a threat." Several deputies opened fire and killed him. The Sheriff isn't confirming the suspect's identity ... or what his relationship was with Ron and his wife.

That’s terrible.

I never really liked him as Tarzan when I was a kid. I lost my shit over Mike Henry as a Tarzan though. Easily my biggest crush as a gayling.

I realize they don't look alike, but something about Jon Erik Hexum's face always reminded me of Ron Ely's.

It's like if you were doing a picture morph starting with Ron Ely going toward Henry Cavill, you'd hit Hexum about halfway there.

I guess my wish that Ron would narrate the audio book of A Feast Unknown by Philip Jose Farmer is likely not going to happen.

Ron Ely as Tarzan. I love the micro short loincloth.

Terrible thing to happen to to the poor guy. Looks like the son killed the mother.

Will the son prove to suffer from some form of mental illness?

According to the latest report Ron Ely's son killed his wife and then the police fatally shot the son. So sad.

Bombshell Tonight! 911 call by Ron Ely’s son crying and stating his father was attacking his mother. Then the son left. The father tells police it was Cameron who killed his wife. Hmmm

He would say that if he was trying to cover his tracks. Plus at Ely's age he probably can't remember who is is or what he did anyway.

by Anonymousreply 31October 17, 2019 4:07 AM

If the son didn't attack her, why did he attack the cops when they arrived?

Sounds like Ely wasn't physically able to attack anyone, the police couldn't even understand what he was saying, I'd assume because of a health issue like a stroke.

by Anonymousreply 32October 17, 2019 4:46 AM

The police always say someone attacked them. 99.9% of all police shootings are unprovoked.

Ron fathered that kid at 51, so you know his sperm was messed up by then and so was the kid

Cameron Ely, who was killed at the scene by police after allegedly stabbing his mother and killing her, was a 2012 graduate of Harvard University. Despite a Harvard degree, he worked as a security guard and lived with his parents. What happened??
