A medical examiner ruled “Pulp Fiction” actor Peter Greene died from an accidental gunshot wound, with the manner of death classified as an accident.

TL;DR
The key update is the official ruling: accident, not foul play.

Key Details

  • Variety reports New York City’s Office of the Chief Medical Examiner ruled Greene’s death was due to a gunshot wound and classified it as an accident.
  • ABC7 reports authorities said the incident happened in Greene’s New York City apartment and was described as accidental.
  • TMZ also cites the medical examiner’s ruling as accidental and includes additional detail on the wound description.

Breakdown
This is one of those situations where the internet runs in ten directions, fast — and the medical examiner ruling is what actually matters.

The reporting from Variety and ABC7 pins the update to the official classification: accidental. That’s a clean answer to the biggest question people tend to jump to in cases like this.

It doesn’t fill in every detail (and it shouldn’t). But it does establish the official cause and manner of death, which is the difference between rumor-fueled spirals and documented findings.

For fans who know Greene from projects like “Pulp Fiction” and “The Mask,” the update is grim, but straightforward: the case is being described as an accident by the medical examiner.
