Hip hop producer Dr. Dre (real name Andre Young) is mourning the death of his 20-year old son Andre Young Jr.
Andre was found “unresponsive” by his mother at his Woodland Hills, CA home Saturday, reports the L.A. County Coroner’s Office. Young’s mother told police that she attempted to rouse her son at 10:24 a.m. on Saturday, and when she couldn’t, she called paramedics. They pronounced him dead at the scene.
Young “had been out with friends” the previous night and returned home around 5:30 a.m., according to L.A. County Coroner’s assistant chief. An autopsy was performed Monday and no foul play is suspected.
“Dr. Dre is mourning the loss of his son,” Dre’s rep says in a statement. “Please respect his family’s grief and privacy at this time.”
The music star has four other children: 26-year old Curtis, 17-year old Marcus and 11-year old Truth as well as a 7-year old daughter, Truly.
