Robin Williams was cremated a day after he was found dead in his home, multiple outlets are reporting.

RadarOnline was first to report that according to the actor’s death certificate, of which the site has obtained a copy, “Williams was cremated and his ashes were scattered in the San Francisco Bay just one day after his death, on August 12.”

The certificate — issued by the State of California, County of Marin — also lists Williams’ cause of death as “pending investigation.”

It is worth noting that under California law, only authorized persons may receive authorized certified copies of death records (parents, children of the deceased, attorneys, law enforcement, etc.) “Those who are not authorized to receive an authorized certified copy will receive a certified copy marked ‘Informational, not a valid document to establish identity,'” according to Marin County’s division of records website. Media is not listed under authorized persons.

However, Richard N. Benson, who signed RadarOnline’s alleged copy of Williams’ death certificate, appears in the county’s directory.
