AceShowbiz - Anne Heche died after being involved in a fiery single-car accident in Los Angeles on August 5. After spending several days in a coma, the "Six Days Seven Nights" actress was pronounced dead. Her official cause of death was listed as smoke inhalation and thermal injuries as a result of burns sustained in the crash where she was trapped in her burning car for nearly an hour before being freed by responders.
A new report from medical examiner revealed that the 53-year-old actress tested positive for benzoylecgonine, cocaine, fentanyl and cannabinoids after she crashed her car into a home. However, the substances didn't seem to play a role in the crash as the medical examiner noted that there was "no evidence of impairment" by illicit drugs at the time of the crash. She also tested negative for alcohol.
It's also said the presence of both the cannabinoids and benzoylecgonine, an inactive metabolite of cocaine, showed the "Hung" actress used both substances in the past but not on the day of the accident. The fentanyl in her system was determined to have been administered by hospital staff to treat her pain after the crash.
