Ted Koppel Son Dies at 40

Atlanta, GA 6/1/2010 8:37:54 PM

The only son of former ABC news anchor Ted Koppel has died. Andrew Koppel, an attorney for NYC’s Housing Authority, was pronounced dead early Tuesday morning after an apparent daylong drinking binge.

According to reports, Koppel was drinking at a bar when he befriended a waiter, 32-year-old Russell Wimberly. The pair drank together all day before heading to an apartment in Washington Heights around 11 p.m.

Wimberly and his roommate, Belinda Caban, found Koppel, 40, unconscious around 1:40 a.m. They called paramedics, who pronounced Koppel dead at the scene.

"Someone called 911. A guy he was with. The call came in at 1:40 a.m. that he was unconscious. He didn't respond, and he was pronounced dead,” an NYPD spokesperson tells People magazine.

The cause of death has not been determined. Koppel, one of 4 children, lived with his girlfriend and daughter in Queens.

Ted Koppel, the longtime anchor of ABC’s Nightline, has not commented.
