Rapper arrested after teen's body was found in trunk of car registered in his name...
Rising rap star D4vd has been arrested in connection with the murder of a teenage girl whose dismembered body was found in the trunk of a car registered in the artist's name.
Los Angeles police arrested the singer, whose real name is David Burke, "for the murder of Celeste Rivas".
A day before she would have turned 15, Los Angeles police discovered the Rivas's badly decomposed body in the trunk of an impounded Tesla last September.
Police were called to the Hollywood tow yard by workers and neighbors who complained of a foul smell.
No charges have been filed against the rapper but local prosecutors say they will review the case and expect to issue an update Monday.
Rivas was reported missing at age 13 in Riverside County, southeast of Los Angeles.
After the autopsy, the medical examiner's office said she "appeared to have been deceased inside the vehicle for an extended period of time before being found."
Police investigators said the Tesla was parked in the tony Hollywood Hills area for nearly a month before being towed.
