Celebrities who died too young
With April 4 marking what would have been Heath Ledger's 34th birthday, join us in remembering the late actor and these other celebrities who died too early.
Former Beatle John Lennon was 40 when Mark David Chapman shot him in the back four times on Dec. 8, 1980, as Lennon and wife Yoko Ono returned to their New York apartment. Lennon was taken to the emergency room of the nearby Roosevelt Hospital and was pronounced dead on arrival at 11:07 p.m.
