D4vd’s last post on Instagram promotes the deluxe version of his album, “Withered,” which dropped in April. It’s due out Friday.
Fans have pointed out that the post — shared on Sept. 7 — is also the date of birth of the 15-year-old girl, Celeste Rivas, who was found chopped up in the vehicle earlier this month.
Police are currently deep into an investigation, and TMZ learned authorities searched the Los Angeles home the “Romantic Homicide” singer was residing in Wednesday night … looking for traces of blood, and other evidence. As we reported, the Tesla had been parked near the house.
D4vd has not publicly addressed the investigation.
It’s unclear if his tour will continue … his show in Seattle scheduled for Wednesday night was axed after cops determined the victim was Celeste.
TMZ has obtained photos and videos which show D4vd and Celeste had interacted with each other in the past, and Celeste’s mother told TMZ her daughter told her she was dating someone named David.
TMZ was told Thursday his Saturday concert at Los Angeles’ Greek Theatre is still on. We were unable to confirm his show scheduled for Friday in San Francisco will take place … though tickets are still on sale.
