The body of Whitney Houston was discovered in a bathtub by a member of her personal staff, Beverly Hills police confirmed Monday. They also announced they are not "conducting a homicide investigation" into the singer's death.
Still unknown is what exactly killed the pop superstar.
"I know there are reports that she maybe was drowned or did she overdose, but we won't make a final determination until all the tests are in," said Los Angeles County Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter.
Beverly Hills Police Lt. Mark Rosen also would not speculate on the cause of death, leaving that to the Coroner's office once their investigation is complete, which he suggested would be in about two or three weeks.
Rosen did continue to help piece together the sequence of events Saturday afternoon in Houston's hotel room, saying that her body had been removed from the tub by the time help arrived. After several failed attempts to revive her, Houston was pronounced dead at 3:55 p.m. PT, roughly 25 minutes after she was first found.
He said the 911 tapes from will be made available at some point to the media.
The initial investigation by the Beverly Hills Police Department has concluded and Rosen said police have left the Beverly Hilton, though they still have plenty more work to do on the case.
He announced this would be the last information released by his department until coroner's toxicology testing is complete.
