Nicholas Brendon, an actor known for playing Xander Harris on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” dies at age 54. Multiple reports say he is found unresponsive at his home in Greencastle, Indiana, on March 20. One outlet reports that a female friend discovers him around 8 a.m. at the residence, while another says the actor’s cause of death is later reported to have been revealed. The reports agree on the date of death and the location in Indiana, but they do not provide consistent additional medical or investigative details in the information provided. Both accounts indicate that information about his passing emerges after his death, with the cause of death disclosure coming weeks later. Brendon’s death is widely covered as the loss of a cast member from the long-running television series.
