The Associated Press is reporting that actor Patick Swayze died today after a long and valiant fight with pancreatic cancer:
Patrick Swayze, the hunky actor who danced his way into moviegoers' hearts with "Dirty Dancing" and then broke them with "Ghost," died Monday after a battle with pancreatic cancer. He was 57.
"Patrick Swayze passed away peacefully today with family at his side after facing the challenges of his illness for the last 20 months," said a statement released Monday evening by his publicist, Annett Wolf. Swayze died in Los Angeles, Wolf said, but declined to give further details.
Swayze was married to actress Lisa Niemi from June 12, 1975 until his death. The couple first met in 1970 when Swayze was 18 years old.
