HOLLYWOOD HILLS—On September 8, the body of the missing teenager, Celeste Rivas Hernandez, was found in an abandoned Tesla vehicle that was left in an impounded lot in Hollywood Hills. Authorities have revealed that a second person has been linked to the death of the teen. The vehicle belonged to singer, D4vd. 

Authorities have not yet revealed the name of the person. Homicide detectives of the Los Angeles Police Department have been investigating the disappearance of the teen for months.

The LAPD have been able to use this social media data and the cell phone data of the singer D4vd, who is now a suspect, to determine that this second person visited the Hollywood Hills impound lot.

In addition, the authorities suspect that this person was in the vehicle, where the body of Celeste Rivas Hernandez was discovered. No arrests have been made in the case. The investigation is ongoing.

The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) stated on its website they are aware of the recent stories posted by various media outlets about the D4vd/Celeste Rivas investigation and would like to dispel some misinformation contained in their reporting.

The body of Celeste Rivas was not frozen when it was discovered on September 8, 2025. She had not been decapitated. We have evidence that D4vd travelled to the Santa Barbara area sometime during Spring 2025. The reason for that trip is still under investigation and no conclusions at this point about the relevance of the trip to this case.

As far as the court order, the LAPD sought to seal the records of the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s investigation into Celeste Rivas’ death. That order was sought only to ensure detectives from Robbery-Homicide Division learned of important information surrounding her death before the media and the public. The order was not sought to undermine transparency.

No other information will be provided at this time, the LAPD stated.

HOLLYWOOD HILLS—David Anthony Burke is a singer and songwriter who performs under the name D4vd, and on September 8th, a dead body was found in the back of an abandoned Tesla vehicle that was found in a Hollywood Hills impound lot and which is registered to the singer.  Since then, the Police have identified the body as being the remains of Celeste Rivas Hernandez, a teenager who disappeared from Lake Elsinore two years ago when she was 13.  On September 17th, the police searched a four-bedroom house in Hollywood Hills, where D4vd was living in a room he was renting. After the search, he and his manager, Josh Marshall, ended the lease.

The lease on the room started last February. Mladen Trifunovic is the owner of the house.  He was unaware that D4vd was staying at the residence until the property manager informed him of the search that was being conducted by the Police.  In the room, the officers found several electronic devices and computers.

D4vd is cooperating with the investigation.   The Police have identified no suspect, and it is uncertain how the remains of Celeste Rivas Hernandez ended up in the back of the Tesla vehicle.

HOLLYWOOD HILLS—On Monday, September 8, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) deputies were called to the Tow Yard used by Hollywood Tow Service located at 1015 N. Mansfield Avenue due to a foul smell that was emitted from a 2023 Tesla. The Tesla had Texas plates and was registered to David Anthony Burke. He is the famous R and B singer that uses the stage name, “D4VD.” Police indicated that the Tesla was reported abandoned and towed from Hollywood Hills less than a week ago.

Upon further investigation, deputies found a decomposing body in a bag that was stuffed in the front trunk of the Tesla. The vehicle has been stored in the top tier of what is referred to as, The Police Garage at the tow yard.

The medical examiner responded to the location but was unable to determine much at the scene due to decomposition. It was later confirmed that the person was a woman with wavy black hair. TMZ first reported that she had a unique tattoo that said, “Shhh.”

Reports indicate that D4VD has been on tour since August 5th. He has not been identified as a suspect. He is a newer artist who became a overnight sensation of sorts as his music went viral on TikTok with hits like; “What Are You Waiting For,” “Take Me to The Sun,” “Sky,” “Backstreet Girl,” “Sleep Well,” and “Worthless.”

On Tuesday, September 9, a second body was discovered in a burned blue Honda Civic that was impounded in a separate tow yard located west of Western Avenue near Gage Street. There is no further information on the victims. There is no indication that these two cases are connected in any way.

HOLLYWOOD HILLS—On Tuesday, September 2, the Los Angeles Fire Department reported a brush fire at 2199 N. Sunset Plaza Drive. The blaze was reported at 6:40 p.m.

First responding companies report one vehicle on fire, with flames burning uphill through medium-heavy brush toward one hillside home. Air and ground resources from both LAFD and LA County Fire were sent en route.

Approximately a 1/4 acre of heavy vegetation was burning uphill. There were no structures currently involved, but several homes uphill were threatened and being prioritized for structure defense. Water drops from LAFD helicopters significantly slowed fire progress below the homes. Approximately 80 LAFD personnel were dispatched, including air resources and hand crews.

By 7:30 p.m., officials reported all active flames have been extinguished and forward progress stopped. Helicopters will continue water drops between homes to cool hotspots, while hand crews begin working toward 100 percent containment on the very steep terrain. Shelter-in-place orders issued for Genasys zones LFD-0817, LFD-0819, and LFD-0911 (bit.ly/sunset-plaza-ic), which were later lifted. There were no injuries reported.
