An autopsy has found that guitar legend B.B. King died of natural causes, rejecting his daughters' claims of foul play.
The coroner in Las Vegas, where the "King of the Blues" died at age 89 on May 14, said that King died primarily due to Alzheimer's disease.
"At this point we can say with confidence that Mr. King died of natural causes," John Fudenberg, the coroner for Clark County, said in a statement made public on Tuesday.
