AceShowbiz - After series of investigations, the New Jersey medical examiner's office has determined comedian Mitch Hedberg died of an accidental drug overdose. Previously, it was believed that the comedian had died from heart failure, considering the fact that he was born with a congenital heart defect and experienced chronic heart palpitations.
Though, the report obviously revealed that traces of cocaine and heroin were found in Hedberg's body after his death on March 30 in Livingston, N.J. Based on such fact, authorities then come to a conclusion that Hedberg died of an accidental drug overdose.
