A foul odor coming from an impounded Tesla at a Hollywood, California tow yard led police to a decomposing body in the trunk.
The vehicle is registered to singer D4vd, local news station ABC-7 reported. Los Angeles Police were summoned to the tow yard in the 1000 block of North Mansfield Ave. around 12:30 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 8.
Sources told the station an extremely foul order was emanating from the vehicle. The Tesla had been on the property for a few days during a heatwave in the city.
The body had been placed in the front trunk inside a bag, the station reported. No identification has yet been made.

The car was towed from the Hollywood Hills last week after an unidentified person reported it missing. Police believe the body was inside the vehicle for up to five days before it was discovered.
ABC-7 reports that the 2023 Tesla is registered in Hempstead, Texas to D4vd, whose real name is David Anthony Burke.
D4vd’s representatives have not commented yet on the situation.
The singer is on a world tour and scheduled for a Los Angeles appearance on Sept. 20. He is slated to perform in Minneapolis tonight.
The 20-year-old D4vd released his second album earlier this year. He is known for the songs “Here with Me” and “Romantic Homicide.” The tracks have billions of streams on Spotify.
