Overview
- Officers and paramedics responded after a call reporting an unresponsive man and attempted life-saving measures at Kelker-Kelly’s home around 8:16 p.m. on Oct. 3 but were unable to revive him.
- Law enforcement described the scene as non-suspicious and the Missouri medical examiner has released the body to a local funeral home while an official cause of death is pending.
- Dispatch audio published by TMZ records the call as a reported 'cardiac arrest' and indicates Kelker-Kelly was found unresponsive in bed with CPR already in progress.
- Kelker-Kelly was best known for stepping into the role of Bo Brady on Days of Our Lives (1992–1995) and also had long runs on Another World and appearances on General Hospital before later working as a professional pilot.
- Earlier this year Lisa Rinna’s memoir accused Kelker-Kelly of verbally abusive behavior on set, the allegation was not publicly answered by Kelker-Kelly, and reporters say further details may emerge once autopsy and toxicology results are released.
