I thought it was a heart attack too but then I just saw this come on twitter CBS Los Angeles ‏ @CBSLA Breitbart Autopsy Results ‘Deferred’ Pending Toxicology Tests If he had a heart attack the coroner would have been able to see it right away. The coroner can see heart disease immediately through autopsy, why do they need toxicology results?

Was the autopsy completed before 0700 PST?

To find out if a heart attack was precipitated by drug use (or poisoning). They need the toxicology results before the autopsy so they can look for the effects on organs.
