LOS ANGELES (AP) — Alt-pop singer D4vd, whose legal name is David Burke, has been arrested on suspicion of killing a 14-year-old girl, authorities said. The arrest came seven months after the girl's body was discovered in the singer's towed SUV.
According to the Los Angeles Police Department, detectives took the 21-year-old into custody. The investigation began after the victim was found deceased in the vehicle, which had been impounded.
Burke, known for hits like "Romantic Homicide," gained prominence through social media platforms. The case remains under active investigation, and formal charges are pending review by the district attorney's office.
Authorities have not released the identity of the victim or further details regarding the circumstances of her death, citing the ongoing nature of the case.
