Mac Miller's Body Returns To Pittsburgh

PITTSBURGH, PA - The body of rap star Mac Miller has been flown back to Pittsburgh for a funeral in his hometown. TMZ reported a Jewish service will be held for him at an unidentified chapel.

That news came after several thousand Mac Miller fans turned out for a vigil in his memory Tuesday at Blue Slide Park in Squirrel Hill, the place for which his 2011 debut album was named.

Miller, 26, was found dead at his California home last week of an apparent drug overdose. He
reportedly had struggled with substance abuse issues in recent months after his breakup with singer Ariana Grande and recently was charged with DUI following an auto accident.

The Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office is awaiting toxicology results before issuing an official cause of death for Miller.
