However, if a cause of death can be determined by the autopsy, the results will
be announced, Mr McKibben said. Police said they were investigating the death,
standard procedure in high-profile cases. Officers are searching for a doctor
who they hope will help in the investigation. A Los Angeles police spokeswoman
said they towed from Jackson's house a BMW owned by one of the superstar's
doctors. "We have not been able to interview the doctor yet. His car was
impounded because it may contain medications or other evidence that may assist
the coroner in determining the cause of death," she said. Celebrity gossip web
site TMZ.com reported that the doctor lived at the home. The spokeswoman said
she could not confirm that and did not know the doctor's identity. She stressed
that the doctor was not under criminal investigation but coroner's investigators
wanted to contact him. Jackson's brother Jermaine earlier said: "It is believed
he suffered cardiac arrest in his home. However, the cause of his death is
unknown until results of the autopsy are known." Cardiac arrest is an abnormal
heart rhythm that stops the heart from pumping blood to the body. It can occur
after a heart attack or be caused by other heart problems.
