Report: SCOTT WEILAND Overdosed On Cocaine, Ecstasy And Alcohol

According to toxicology results, Scott Weiland overdosed on cocaine, MDA (ecstasy) and alcohol, reports TMZ. Heart disease and asthma were also “significant” condtions, and Scott’s “multi-substance dependence” were also a factor.

Weiland was found unresponsive in the back bedroom of his tour bus before a gig on December 3rd in Minnesota. He was buried in Los Angeles, California on Thursday, December 10th. Members of both of his previous bands, Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver, attended the funeral service at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

RollingStone.com reported that a recently released search warrant filed by the Bloomington Police Department detailed the scene in the tour bus bedroom where Scott Weiland was found dead . In addition to the two baggies of a white substance that later tested positive as cocaine, authorities found a number of medications, according to Billboard, including the sedative Lunesta, anti-anxiety drug Klonopin, Viagra, sedative Dalmane, narcotic Buprenex and the antipsychotic Geodon.

Elsewhere on the bus, police confiscated other suspicious items, including a clear baggie containing a “green leafy substance” in the cabin. They also detailed the baggie of cocaine they discovered in the bunk of bassist Tommy Black.

An affidavit also explained how authorities learned of Weiland’s death. Bloomington Officer George Harms was assigned to the “follow-up investigation of a possible overdose” that occurred in a hotel parking lot at around 8:21 PM, local time last Thursday.
