                  'Glee' Star Died of Heroin, Alcohol Overdose

   by Reuters

   Cory Monteith, the 31-year-old heartthrob of Fox Television's
   musical-comedy series Glee, died of an apparently accidental overdose
   of heroin and alcohol, Canadian authorities said on Tuesday.
   The British Columbia Coroners Service said in a release that
   post-mortem testing on the star, who was found dead on Saturday in a
   downtown Vancouver hotel room, died of "mixed-drug toxicity involving
   heroin and alcohol.'' It said Monteith's death was unlikely to have
   been intentional.
