The police arrived at the Fairmont San Francisco around 3:14am, responding to a report of a deceased person, their spokesperson told TMZ.
They spoke to the paramedics, who declared that the adult female on the scene was dead, and the Medical Examiner also arrived and investigated.
Victoria Kafka Jones was born on September 3, 1991, and by 2002 she had made her movie debut with a small part in her father’s picture Men in Black II.
She appeared in a handful of acting projects as a child, including a 2003 episode of One Tree Hill and a role in the 2005 Western picture The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada, which was directed by her father.
Although she withdrew from the spotlight by the time of her adulthood, she has attended the occasional red carpet alongside Jones.
In 2017, she posed proudly at his side at the ArcLight Hollywood for the premiere of his movie Just Getting Started, also starring Morgan Freeman and Rene Russo.
Jones showered praise on his daughter during a 2006 interview promoting The Three Burials of Melquiades after he directed her in the feature.
‘She’s a good actress, has her SAG card, speaks impeccable Spanish,’ he said. ‘When she was a baby, I told Leticia, her nurse, to speak to her in Spanish.’
He also told a charming story of having to acclimatize his then 14-year-old daughter to the rigors of working on a Hollywood movie set.
‘She had to get up at 5 a.m. for her part. One morning, she wouldn’t get out of bed. I said, ‘Honey, this is work.’ But she wouldn’t budge,’ he told the New Yorker.
‘So I fired her. Then, without telling me, the production staff went over and woke her and rushed her out to the set just in time,’ he recalled.
