Standup comedian Richard Jeni was found gravely injured from a gunshot wound Saturday morning inside his West Hollywood apartment. He died soon after at the hospital. His girlfriend told police that Jeni shot himself, but authorities aren't yet saying whether they consider the death suicide. Jeni starred in several HBO specials and had been a "Tonight Show" regular. His film credits include The Mask, The Aristocrats, National Lampoon's Dad's Week Off and An Alan Smithee Film: Burn, Hollywood, Burn.
