“Glee” star Cory Monteith dead at 31

Canadian actor Cory Monteith, who played heart throb Finn Hudson in the hit show Glee, has been found dead in Vancouver hotel, according to police, Belfast Telegraph said.

The 31-year-old, who played the leading man in the TV series about a high school glee club, was found dead in his room on the 21st floor of the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel on Vancouver's waterfront at about noon on Saturday, July 13.

Deputy Police Chief Doug Lepard said there is no indication of foul play. Monteith's body was found by hotel staff after he missed his check-out time, Lepard said.

"We do not have a great deal of information as to cause of death," said Coroner Lisa Lapointe. Lepard said Monteith had been out with people earlier and that those people are being interviewed.

Monteith had voluntarily entered rehab for substance abuse problems in April.
