Shortly after meeting Tracy, Angus was murdered by his nephew Selbert. Selbert sneaked into the health spa in the uniform of an orderly he had knocked out. Selbert held a telephone receiver up to Angus' head while Angus spoke to Dick Tracy about Selbert's recent escape from a mental hospital. Selbert then assaulted Angus' exposed head while Angus was locked in a steam cabinet. Selbert pushed the cabinet off of its moorings and it fell to the floor where Angus' head was knocked against a pipe. Angus died from the injury.
