Eduardo Xol, who starred in "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" in the early 2000s, has died. He was 58.
According to the Riverside County (California) Sheriff's website, the actor and TV personality died Friday, just 10 days after sustaining injuries from an alleged stabbing attack. His time of injury was listed as 5:41 a.m. Sept. 10. He died at 12:19 p.m. Sept. 20.
On Sept. 10, the Palm Springs Police Department reported receiving a call at that time from a man requesting help, Gustavo Araiza, a lieutenant with the Palms Springs Police Department, said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
Upon arrival, officers discovered Xol had a significant number of injuries. Xol claimed he had been stabbed but did not identify the suspect at the time.
Hours later, a man named Richard Joseph Gonzales called police dispatch and claimed he had been assaulted the previous night, the statement added. After a thorough investigation, police arrested Gonzales on suspicion of attempted murder in Xol's stabbing.
Gonzalez is being held without bail. Police told Fox News Digital that, from what they can tell, the two men were acquaintances, and they knew each other.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, Xol's family wrote, "We are heartbroken at the tragic loss of our beloved Eduardo Xol. As his family, we know that his kindness has touched the lives of so many. We ask for that kindness returned now allowing our privacy to be respected as we process our grief. In lieu of flowers we ask that donations be made in Eduardo’s name to the Lupus Foundation of America as he spent so much of his life in the service of others."
Fox News Digital has reached out to "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" for comment.
