R.I.P.
Medics: Heath's Place Looked "Normal"

Posted Jan 23rd 2008 9:20PM by TMZ Staff

Heath LedgerTMZ has learned that paramedics who first attended to Heath Ledger were interviewed by NYPD today and said the scene looked "normal" -- meaning it didn't appear as if illicit drug use had occurred.

As we reported earlier, the $20 bill found at the scene tested clean for illegal narcotics, and the numerous pill bottles were nearly full.

The exact cause of Heath's death will be determined when the toxicology results come in -- sometime in the next two weeks.

32. While so many reports on this horrible tragedy have been negative, at least TMZ has had the decency to attempt to keep this amazing actor's name clean. Hopefully when little Matilda grows up she'll be able to see what an amazing man her father truly was.

33. julie#14 i am a nurse with a background in medicinal biochemistry. ANY combination of these drugs can be lethal drug combining of 2 or more drugs with sedative effects exponentially increases their effects. it shuts down the respiratory center in your brain. you just supress the brains breathing command center, any of these drugs can be lethal.

34. It is possible that the masseuse, housekeeper and/or bodyguard cleaned up any illegal drugs before calling the cops. I really don't think so, but I don't think we can rule that out yet.

36. They didn't call the Olsen Twins, the called the Olsen Twins body guard who was a block or so away, and an EMT, then they called 911

38. TMZ - SHAME on you. Hounding the friends and family for comments when they are trying to grieve. All I know is if I were a pap, I wouldn't be able to sleep at night. Celebs are people too, they don't belong to you nor do they have to talk to you at all. Y'ever notice how they AVOID you at all costs? BECAUSE you are LOSERS and damn annoying. LET THIS FAMILY have their time to grieve the loss of Heath. LEAVE his family and friends ALONE.

40. Medics: Heath's place looked "normal"?????
Pullleeeeezzze, we've already heard this from the police, who are the only ones allowed (and competent) to rule on the situation
What's the next headline TMZ...
maybe "house painters: Heath's place looked normal"???
or "pet cat: Heath's place looked normal"???
TMZ, why don't you just report the facts when the FACTS are available. We don't need a constant barrage of mis-information
Oh, wait, but that would mean you have to do ACTUAL WORK finding other celebs to report FACTS on
Oh, wait, that would make you bonafide journalists

42. Adrienne,

Thanks. I just heard on some show that's on in the background that the masseuse called Mary Kate and she called her bodyguard and told him to get over there...apparently he was a block away. Then this masseuse callled 911. There is just so much crap out there, most of which isn't true that it boggles my mind.

Oh and I saw where you said some of the posts you read in your name weren't you. I had read some earlier and thought it didn't sound like you.

43. Why is it always so hard to figure out the cause of death in Hollywood? Just like Anna Nicole's son. Everything is always shady out there. If this were a non celeb the real reason for cause of death would be known..how annoying!!!!
