'Glee' Star Cory Monteith Dead at 31

Glee actor Cory Monteith was found dead on Saturday (July 13) at Vancouver's Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel. He was 31. The news was first reported by Canada's CTV.

According to police, the actor was found at noon on the hotel's 21st floor, Vancouver police said in a news conference. He had previously checked into the hotel back on July 6 and he was scheduled to check out on Saturday, but he did not. Hotel staff discovered him when they later went to his room.
