Emmy-winning actor Andre Braugher, best known for his popular roles in television series including "Brooklyn Nine-Nine," "Men of a Certain Age" and "Homicide: Life on the Street," died on Tuesday following a "brief illness," his rep confirmed to CBS News. He was 61.
His role as the beloved Captain Raymond Holt of the 99th precinct earned him four Emmy nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series. Braugher was nominated 11 times and won two Emmys; in 2006 for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Miniseries or Movie and in 1998 for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series.
His "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" co-stars took to social media this week to celebrate the actor's life and mourn the unexpected loss, with actor Terry Crews sharing a photo of Braugher alongside an emotional caption.
