Deputies received a call about an "unresponsive man in a hotel room" and the man was "identified as Robert Saget," Orange County Sheriff's Office said. While the officials didn't reveal the cause of death, they mentioned there were no signs of foul play or drug use.

"Earlier today, deputies were called to the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes for a call about an unresponsive man in a hotel room," the official Twitter handle of the sheriff's office said.

Saget had posted a selfie on Twitter on Sunday, sharing details of his latest performance.

"Loved tonight’s show @PV_ConcertHall in Jacksonville. Appreciative audience. Thanks again to @RealTimWilkins for opening. I had no idea I did a 2 hr set tonight. I'm happily addicted again to this s--t," the comedian tweeted.
