Keanu Reeves Dies in Snowboard Accident

While news of singer Whitney Houston's death is true, new messages circulating in social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter are falsely spreading information that Matrix actor Keanu Reeves died in a snowboard accident:

Actor Keanu Reeves is reported to have died shortly after a snowboard accident earlier today - February 12, 2012.

The actor & novice snowboarder was vacationing at the Zermatt ski resort in Zermatt, Switzerland with family and friends. Witnesses indicate that Keanu Reeves lost control of his snowboard and struck a tree at a high rate of speed.

Keanu Reeves was air lifted by ski patrol teams to a local hospital, however, it is believed that the actor died instantly from the impact of the crash. The actor was wearing a helmet at the time of the accident and drugs and alcohol do not appear to have played any part in his death.
