Professional wrestler Chris Benoit was found dead yesterday in his Georgia home with his wife and seven-year-old son, World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. said in a statement. Benoit was 40.

Authorities are investigating the deaths as a murder- suicide, the Atlanta-Journal Constitution said on its Web site. The Fayetteville County, Georgia, police department said no information would be released until later today.

Benoit, a Canadian native, had been a professional wrestler since 1985, including the past eight years with the WWE. He was scheduled to compete in a pay-per-view title match on June 24, though he didn't appear due to what the WWE said during the broadcast was a ``family emergency.''
