Farrow brother 'committed suicide'

Patrick Farrow died of a single self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, it has emerged.

The sculptor brother of actress Mia was found dead at his Vermont studio on Monday in circumstances the authorities described as "suspicious".

Police said that a medical examiner's finding of suicide matched evidence observed at the scene, the BBC reports.

Mia Farrow's manager said: "The family of Patrick Farrow is grieving the tragic loss of their beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle who sadly chose to take his own life.

"They greatly appreciate the support of their friends during this difficult time."
