Malcolm-Jamal Warner, who rose to fame as the son on 1980s megahit The Cosby Show and had a prolific acting career that include series-regular slots on The Resident and Malcom & Eddie, died Sunday in a drowning accident in Costa Rica. He was 54.

Costa Rican National Police told ABC News that Warner’s official cause of death was asphyxia. Police said he died near Cocles, a beach in Limon, after being caught by a high current and was found Sunday afternoon.
