A black porn actor suspected of killing a colleague with a sword has died after jumping from a rocky hillside after a standoff with police

SWAT officers tried to talk Stephen Clancy Hill down from the hill as he clutched a sword. Police Officer Bruce Borihanh says the 34-year-old actor fell some 40 feet. Hill fled to the Chatsworth neighborhood hillside after leaving a house where he had been barricaded. He faced murder and attempted murder charges in an attack at a DVD production center. Hill attacked a colleague with a sword that was used as a film prop during a social gathering at the Ultima's studios about a week after being told he was being fired and that he would have to move out of the production facility, where he had been living, authorities said. He then turned on two others who rushed to their co-worker's defense. One of those who attempted to help, Herbert Hin Wong, 30, was killed in the attack. Hill was convicted of second-degree assault and a handgun charge in March 1999 in Maryland, according to court records.
