Kelly had reportedly entered the restaurant, dined, and then returned to his vehicle before the incident. A bystander called the police after noticing that Kelly appeared lethargic.
Responding officers attempted life-saving measures for approximately 30 minutes, but Kelly could not be revived.
Police believe the death was likely due to natural causes, although the exact cause is still under investigation. For more detailed coverage, visit this report by KTVU.
