March 9th, 2011
Mike Starr, the former bassist for Alice in Chains and a cast member on Celebrity Rehab in 2009, has died. He was 44 years old.
The musician's body was found in a Salt Lake City home this afternoon.
Starr was arrested last month for felony possession of a controlled substance, as Utah police say he had six Xanax pills and six Opana pills on him when he was busted.
Says Mike's dad to TMZ: "It's a terrible shock and tragedy."
