The wife of former "Tarzan" actor Ron Ely was stabbed to death by the couple's son at their California home on Tuesday evening, police said.

 

The Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office said in a statement that deputies showed up at a house in the upscale neighborhood of Hope Ranch following an emergency call about a family dispute and found Valerie Lundeen Ely, 62, dead with "multiple stab wounds."

 

Deputies identified the suspect as the Elys' son, 30-year-old Cameron Ely, and shot him dead after determining he posed a threat.

 

"Deputies searched the residence and surrounding area for Cameron Ely," the Sheriff's Office said.

There are reports that the son called the police and told them that his father fights with his mother.

He sure was. Same same like me, looks like you got a bit of age on ya. ( Johnny could actually swim, and throw a knife. And that was his "call" in later movies )
