Chester was found dead at his home in Palos Verdes, near Los Angeles, shortly before 9 a.m. on Thursday, July 20, 2017.
Law enforcement officials say Bennington hung himself from a door, the same way as friend Chris Cornell, in his bedroom and that he was home alone at the time, according to TMZ. He was found upstairs by his housekeeper.
After news of his shocking death emerged, friends said that although they never suspected he would commit suicide, Bennington was “never the same” after the death of his close friend Chris Cornell.
His apparent suicide coincided with Cornell’s birthday. The Soundgarder rocker committed suicide by hanging himself in May of that year.
βChester and Chris were so close, and he was never the same after Chris died,β the friend told Radar.
Bennington’s friend also noted that Cornell’s death deeply affected Bennington, who also struggled with “addiction issues.”
‘But everyone thought he had licked it. He seemed to be in a good place in his life. It’s just so tragic and there are no words,” the friend told Radar.
His bandmates are said to have been blindsided by Chester’s suicide. Sources told TMZ that they had plans to attend a photo shoot in Hollywood later on Thursday.

A Linkin Park band member went to pick him up on Thursday morning, but upon arrival found the police already at his home.
The singer had a history of drug and alcohol abuse. He is survived by his six children from two relationships.
Linkin Park has remained inactive since an October 2017 tribute concert called Linkin Park and Friends: Celebrate Life in honor of Chester Bennington, which drew more than 17,000 people to the Hollywood Bowl.
Linkin Park achieved massive commercial and critical success from the early 2000s with hits such as One Step Closer, In the End and Crawling, the latter of which earned the band a 2002 Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance.
The band would win another Grammy in 2006 for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for Numb/Encore, a collaboration with Jay-Z.
