Dr. Dre’s Son Found Dead
Andre Young Jr., the 20-year-old son of hip-hop producer Dr. Dre, has been found dead in his Woodland Hills home, the star’s rep confirmed to People.
The young man was discovered “unresponsive” by his mother on Saturday morning. An autopsy was conducted on Monday, but the cause of death is as yet undetermined. Foul play is not suspected, the L.A. County Coroner said.
Dr. Dre’s rep, Lori Earl, released a statement on the shock passing earlier today. “Dr. Dre is mourning the loss of his son,” the statement read. “Please respect his family’s grief and privacy at this time.”
According to the police, Young Jr.’s mother “attempted to rouse” her son at around 10:24 a.m. on Saturday, and when she received no response, she phoned the paramedics. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
