‘Lilo & Stitch’ Actor
No Foul Play Suspected In Death
Published
Cops in Hawaii tell TMZ no foul play is suspected in the death of actor David Hekili Kenui Bell, who died suddenly only weeks after his part on Disney’s live-action “Lilo & Stitch” hit the big screen.
Police on the Big Island tell us David died June 12 at 2:26 PM and they are looking into the matter … with the coroner report and autopsy yet to be completed. We’re told that information will be key to determining an exact cause of death.
At this time, though, cops say there is no indication foul play was involved … and the investigation is ongoing.
David got his big break on “Lilo & Stitch” … and he was known locally for his voice work over the P.A. system at Kona Airport — plus some other acting gigs throughout the islands, including “Magnum P.I.” and “Hawaii Five-0.”
His sister Jalene remembered him as “a generous, funny, brilliant, and handsome little brother” who gave her unconditional love … and his rep, Lashauna Downie, told us David “embodied the true meaning of aloha … a gentle giant.”
