GRUESOME FIND

Decomposing Body Found Inside Impounded Tesla Belonging to Singer

The remains were discovered at a Hollywood tow yard after a foul smell started emanating from the electric vehicle.

A decomposing body was found stuffed into a bag inside the front trunk of a Tesla registered to rising music star D4vd, according to local reports. Police said the remains were uncovered Monday afternoon at a Hollywood tow yard after workers reported a foul odor emanating from the vehicle, according to KABC-TV. The Tesla, a 2023 model bearing Texas plates, had been at the yard for a couple of days before the body was discovered. Authorities confirmed the car is registered to David Anthony Burke, the 20-year-old Queens-born singer-songwriter better known as D4vd, whose music has earned him more than two million Instagram followers. The victim has not yet been identified. The car’s grisly contents were found while D4vd was on tour. Over the past week, he has posted regularly on social media, with performances scheduled in Minneapolis on Tuesday and in Los Angeles later this month. Police have not said how the body ended up in the vehicle. The investigation remains ongoing.
