Dr. Dre's Son Died From Drug Overdose, Coroner Report Confirms.
According to People, the Los Angeles County Department of Coroner said the 20 year-old died after using heroin and morphine.
"This case has been closed," coroner spokesman Larry Dietz told People. "It's been ruled an accident due to morphine and heroin intoxication."
While early reports suggested an overdose, an official confirmation had been pending for nearly four months.
As previously reported by SOHH, Young Jr. was discovered motionless by his mother, Jenita Porter, August 23 in their Woodland Hills, California residence.
In related news, Interscope head Jimmy Iovine recently promised the release of Dre's long-delayed Detox album this year.
"Dre's going back [to the studio] in January," Iovine told Billboard. "He'll be finished with Eminem by then, and he'll finish his album."
As of now, no release date information for Detox has been released by Interscope/Aftermath.
