Not surprising. He did some drug-related humor, as you may know.

I haven't heard anything else about a cause of death since it happened. Do you have a link or anything?

Thanks,
CD

Comedian Mitch Hedberg's death in March was the result of an accidental drug overdose, according to the New Jersey medical examiner's office.

The official cause of death was determined to be "multiple drug toxicity." Traces of cocaine and heroin were detected in his system, according to the medical examiner's report filed in May.

Hedberg's body was discovered in a Livingston, New Jersey, hotel room on March 30 [2005]. At first, it was believed the comedian had died from heart failure, as he was born with a congenital heart defect and experienced chronic heart palpitations.
