The late Cindy Morgan’s body was discovered after her “worried” roommate called 911 about an unpleasant smell coming from the “Caddyshack” actress’ bedroom.
“I just came out [of] my room, and I smell a bad odor coming from the room,” the unidentified woman told a dispatcher in audio obtained by .
The roommate explained that she lives in a “shared apartment” and that one of her tenants was “MIA.”
“I’m not sure if she’s in there or not, but she lives with animals. … I’m just worried about my tenant because she don’t [sic] have no one,” the caller added.
The woman said she had not seen Morgan for days but could hear her dog and two cats making noises from inside the locked room. However, their landlord was not available to deliver a key, so the roommate called 911.
“All along there wasn’t any stench, but just now there’s this strong, bad odor,” she said. “I’m just, like, worried.”
News broke on Jan. 6 that the “Tron” star had been found dead at her home in Lake Worth Beach, Fla. She was 69.
The roommate reportedly last saw Morgan alive on Dec. 19 and knocked on her door 11 days later after coming home from a trip but got no response.
Law enforcement officials told TMZ, which was first to obtain the 911 call, that Morgan died from “natural causes” and that foul play was not suspected.
