Mark Landon, the oldest son of late “Little House on the Prairie” actor Michael Landon, was found dead in his West Hollywood home on Monday. Read more on this story below.

Police have not established a cause of death, but did not see any evidence of foul play in the death of Mark Landon, 60.

Mark Landon acted in a few small roles such as the cab driver in the 1991 TV movie “Us,” which was written and directed by Michael Landon just before he died of cancer at the age of 54.

Mark Landon also had small roles in the 1986 movie “Double Edge” and appeared as Navy Seal #1 in the 1997 film “Goodbye America.”
