Actor Andy Griffith died on Tuesday morning in Dare County, North Carolina, reports WITN.com.

Dare County Sheriff Doug Doughtie confirmed to the website that an ambulance went to the 86-year-old's home at 7 a.m. this morning.

Griffith's good friend and former President of the University of North Carolina, Bill Friday, told WITN that the actor had passed away. The AP and CNN also confirmed the news. Details surrounding the actor's cause of death have not been released at this time.

Griffith was best known for his role as Sheriff Andy Taylor in “The Andy Griffith Show,” which ran from 1960 to 1968, and later known for his role as a criminal defense lawyer on "Matlock," which ran from 1986 to 1995. The actor was honored with the the TV Land Legend Award in 2004, and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by George W. Bush in 2005. Griffith was also a singer and musician, and his 1996 album "I Love to Tell the Story: 25 Timeless Hymns" went platinum.

Sad news. Loved The Andy Griffith Show - the B & W episodes, not the ones in colour.

Jamie, I'll die when your mom convinces me to not use a condom when I plow her fat ass and she passes on the AIDS virus she got from one of the Maori she blows for $5.00

Beat it, junior.

Agree about the color episodes. I can think of 3 or 4 of them worth watching (mostly the ones where Don Knotts came back as a guest). Really the only decent non-Barney color episode I can recall is "Eat Your Heart Out"

She had a massive penoris, according to Gomer.

Actually, that actress also played in the episode where the three female prisoners (in prison-issued pumps) had Barney and Floyd hostage at O'Malley's place. In that episode, she was "Naomi," a convicted husband-beater.

Holy shit that is scary, someone that knows as much if not more about the Andy Griffith Show than myself. I travel a lot for work and I take the series DVD's on the plane and watch them. The flight attendants always go by and laugh. I don't quite look the type to watch Andy Griffith I guess.

My favorite episode is that one where the old lady buys all that meat and the freezer goes out!!!
