DJ AM Found Dead in NYC Apartment

Famed American DJ, DJ AM was found dead in his NYC apartment early this evening.

Cops broke into his apartment and found his body after family and friends of the late DJ filed a missing person report due to concern that grew out of not hearing from the DJ for several days.

It is still not clear what he died from, but there has been strong evidence that he died from a drug overdose.

The cops found DJ AM lying face-down on his bed, surrounded by drugs and drug paraphernalia such as a crack pipe and several pills.

DJ AM previously battled a serious drug addiction. However, the DJ has been sober for quite some time and even helped his former girlfriend, Nicole Richie, to beat her addiction to narcotics. However, a case of post traumatic stress caused by the DJ's near death incident after a serious plane crash last September toppled with a recent breakup from his girlfriend, Haley Wood may have played a role in the DJ'S drug relapse.

DJ AM was one of the greatest DJ's of my time. He will surely be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
