DJ AM — also known as Adam Goldstein — has passed away, according to sources within the NYPD.

TMZ is reporting that the body has not yet been removed from the apartment.  The police were called after friends hadn’t seen Goldstein in several days.

He was 36.

5:49: Authorities are saying a “crack pipe” was found on the scene.  Goldstein had spoken publicly about his past addictions to crack cocaine.  The prescription pills were found in his kitchen.
