NEW YORK (AP) — DJ AM, the sought-after disc jockey who became a celebrity in his own right with high-profile romances and a glamorous lifestyle, was found dead Friday at his apartment, which had drug paraphernalia in it, a law enforcement official said.
Paramedics had to break down the door to his Manhattan apartment before they found his body at about 5:20 p.m., the official told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because family hadn’t been notified. There was no evidence of foul play, the official said.
Damn… this Summer has not been good for many folks. It’s sad to see this man get another chance at life only to have it taken away just under a year later. I really hope it wasn’t self induced like it’s seeming to play out like. From the drug overdose reports to his last Twitter message (after the jump). Regardless, Rest in Peace to another one…
