DJ AM spinning
This afternoon police found DJ AM (Adam Goldstein) dead in his NYC apartment. Few details are known right now except that he had not been heard from for a few days and a friend had notified the cops who entered his apartment and allegedly drug paraphernalia (prescription pills) was found in his Lafayette Street apartment. As you might recall, he survived a horrific plane crash last year that left him seriously injured, 4 people dead, and his performing partner Travis Barker of Blink 182 critically burned and injured. So sad……details to come………..
Update-Here is his last Tweet from NYC-rather ominous:
“New york, new york. Big city of dreams, but everything in new york aint always what it seems.”
2nd Update-He had apparently been suffering from depression which he thought to be blamed on trying to kick pain medications that he started to take after his tragic plane accident last year. According to sources, he was found alone in his apartment only wearing sweatpants and was dead when cops discovered him. As mentioned before, there were prescription pills in his apartment, as well as a smoking pipe commonly used for smoking crack, according to the NY Post. He was only 36 years old.
3rd Update-A rep for DJ AM just issued the following statement: “Adam “DJ AM” Goldstein was found deceased this afternoon in his New York City apartment. The circumstances surrounding his death are unclear. Out of respect for his family and loved ones, please respect their privacy at this time.”
