    "Top Gun" director Tony Scott fatally jumped off the Vincent Thomas Bridge in San Pedro on Sunday afternoon, according to Los Angeles police sources.

    His body was pulled out of the water by Los Angeles Police Department, California Highway Patrol and U.S. Coast Guard officials.

    Investigators found a suicide note in his car, which was parked on the bridge.

    Law enforcement sources said several witnesses saw Scott, the brother of director Ridley Scott, climb over a fence on the bridge and jump off.

    The coroner's office identified him Sunday evening.

    Scott was a respected action-movie director who also made "Enemy of the State," Beverly Hills Cop II" and "Crimson Tide."

    Rather unexpected :x

    I don't know much about his films; I've seen "Top Gun" but that's really it.
