Tony Scott Suicide Note: What Caused Him to Jump the Bridge?

British director Tony Scott died on Sunday (August 19) after jumping off the Vincent Thomas Bridge of San Pedro.  Scott, 68, has been working on new projects prior to his sudden death.  It has been revealed that he left a suicide note in his office and to his family and friends.

"We don't know the answer to why," Ed Winter from the Los Angeles County Coroner's office said.  An autopsy is scheduled for Monday and it may reveal crucial information linked to his death.

Some reports have suggested that Scott may have been diagnosed with brain cancer before the suicide.

Winter explained, "But we don't know and haven't done the toxicology or any of the organ studies, or [know] even if he maybe did have some cancer of the brain," says Winter.

Once the autopsy is completed, the information will be made public.  It is unsure if the contents of the suicide note will be made public or not.
