The death of Mia Farrow's brother is now a case for the police.

Authorities are investigating what they're calling the "suspicious" death of sculptor Patrick Farrow, whose body was discovered Monday night on the premises of the gallery and studio space he owned with his wife in Castleton, Vt., not far from the New York border.

Vermont State Police tell the Burlington Free Press that officers arrived at the Farrow Gallery and Studios after receiving a 911 call from a woman, whose identity was not released, at around 11:30 p.m.

The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Burlington will be conducting an autopsy, after which more information will be available, police said.

Patrick, 66, was Mia Farrow's older brother and one of seven siblings born to author John Farrow and actress Maureen O'Sullivan.

In the mission statement on his gallery's website, Patrick wrote, "Early on my imagination was stimulated by years spent on movie sets in Hollywood and Europe as a result of my parents' professions. My art is a result of the total of my life so far."
