Canadian actor Cory Monteith, best known for his role as Finn Hudson from the Fox television show 'Glee,' was found dead in his Vancouver hotel room on Saturday afternoon. He was 31.

According to acting Vancouver Police Chief Doug LePard, his dead body was found in a room on the 21st floor of the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel, Fox News reported.
LePard said that the star checked into the hotel on July 6 and was due to check out on Saturday.

However, the staff found him dead when they went to his room after realizing that he had missed his check-out time.
LePard said that the indications pointed towards no foul play.
Monteith had entered rehab voluntarily for substance abuse problems in April.
His time at rehab was not his first time, he earlier had received treatment when he was 19 and he had earlier spoken about his addiction struggles, asserting that he had a serious problem.
Monteith told Parade in 2011 that he was 'lucky to be alive.'
