Veteran actor James Handy, 81, is identified as the victim of a fatal stabbing at a Los Angeles home in the Tarzana area on Wednesday. Multiple outlets report that Handy, who appeared in films including “Top Gun: Maverick,” “Jumanji,” “Logan,” and “Arachnophobia,” was found outside his home after being stabbed. Officials say his girlfriend’s son was arrested on suspicion of murder and is identified in several reports as Michael Gledhill.

Some accounts also reference a 911 call connected to the incident, describing it as unusual, with one outlet characterizing the call as a confession. Coverage agrees on the basic timeline: the stabbing occurs at or near the residence, Handy is found injured and later dies, and police take the girlfriend’s son into custody. Details about the circumstances leading to the assault, the specific sequence of events before police arrived, and Handy’s cause and location of injuries beyond the stabbing itself are not fully consistent across outlets. The case remains under investigation as authorities process evidence and statements.
