(RTTNews) - Mike Starr, former bassist for Alice in Chains, was found dead on Tuesday.
The 44-year-old rocker was found by police in a Salt Lake City home. They were called to the location at 1:42 p.m. The cause of death has not been released but an autopsy will be carried out this week.
A representative from the Salt Lake City Police Department noted: "There is nothing to indicate that this was foul play by another individual."
His father told TMZ: "It's a terrible shock and tragedy."
Starr appeared in Season 3 of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew in 2009. After the show, he publicly announced he had remained sober for over six months.
Starr relapsed recently and was arrested in Salt Lake City three weeks ago on an outstanding warrant for earlier drugs charges. He was also found in possession of illegal prescription medications.
