TOXICOLOGY REPORT IN HEAVY D DIED OF A BLOOD CLOT IN HIS LUNG


Hip-hop legend Heavy D died last month from a Pulimanry embolism- a blood clot in his leg - that traveled to his lungs during a long flight from London, according to several media reports.
The Los Angeles County Coroner said Tuesday that deep leg vein thrombosis also contributed to Heavy D’s death on November 8. The 350- pound rapper had collapsed outside his Beverly Hills condo after he suffered difficulty breathing, police said at the time. He later died at Los Angeles Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.


Rap legend Heavy D knew something was seriously wrong with his health the day before he suddenly collapsed and died Tuesday, officials told the Daily News.“He had gone to the doctor the day before,” Ed Winter, Assistant Chief of the Los Angeles County Coroner’s office, told the Daily News. “He had what appeared to be like flu-like symptoms.”“He was taking medication, so we want to see what the levels were,” Winter said.


The blood clot was "most likely formed during an extended airplane ride," Craig Harvey, chief of the Los Angeles County department of coroner told the Los Angeles Times.
Raised in Mount Vernon, N.Y., Heavy D, 44, rose to stardom in the late 1980s as the leader of Heavy D & the Boys. The group was responsible for a string of hits including “We Got our Own Thang” and “Now that We Found Love” through the late 1990s
