Biography: Tom Dong (born Herbert Wong) was an Asian-American porn star. He was attacked on June 1, 2010, by fellow porn star Steve Driver. Driver, who was living at the Ultima DVD adult-film studio in Van Nuys where Dong was working, had been fired and was asked to leave the studio. Driver went berserk and attacked Dong and several others with a machete. Dong died of his injuries in a local hospital three days later. The next day, Driver, surrounded by a SWAT team, jumped off a cliff to his death to avoid being captured.
