Hard-rocker Kid Rock is “beyond devastated” after finding the body of his personal assistant, Mike Sacha, on his property. Apparently Sacha, 30, was involved in an ATV accident near Rock’s home in Whites Creek, Tenn.
The singer, 45, shared the news of his grisly discovery on his personal website. Nashville Police confirmed Rock’s account, saying that Sacha’s death was accidental.
“I am beyond devastated to report that my personal assistant Mike Sacha passed away today in an ATV accident here in Nashville,” Rock wrote on his website. “He was a member of our family and one of the greatest young men I have ever had the pleasure to not only work with, but also to become friends with.”
“I know I speak for us all in sharing my deepest condolences to his family. I can not imagine how they must feel. Myself, the band, our family, friends and co-workers are devastated over this loss. We were supposed to be back in Michigan today, but I am going to stay here with Mike until I can bring him home to his family,” he continued. “We’ve already been contacted by the press asking if it was me who was in the accident, so I want to stop any rumors before they spread. I’m asking everyone to please respect our and his families’ privacy in this difficult time. RIP Mike. We will never forget you, my friend.”
According to The Tennessean, Sacha was driving guests back and forth to a cookout on Rock’s estate when he lost control of the ATV and crashed around midnight Monday. Rock and a friend discovered Sacha’s body face-down on an embankment.
