Scott Weiland Dead at 48

FUSE TV - Scott Weiland Dead at 48

Scott Weiland, the longtime lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots, was found dead on Thursday night (Dec. 3), per a report from TMZ. The news has since been confirmed. Weiland was 48.

The singer was found dead on his tour bus in Medina, Minn. Scott Weiland & The Wildabouts were scheduled to play at the Medina Ballroom on Thursday night, but the show was cancelled.

Weiland's cause of death is unknown. The singer (born Scott Richard Kline), who grew up in Ohio and California, had famously struggled with substance abuse for years, which had eventually led to his firing from Stone Temple Pilots. Formed in 1989, STP became an alt-rock powerhouse in the mid-'90s, with five albums released between 1992 and 2001 and hits like "Plush," "Interstate Love Song" and "Vasoline."
