Floyd “experienced a cardiopulmonary arrest while being restrained” by police, the examiner states. Other significant conditions Floyd suffered include arteriosclerotic and hypertensive heart disease, fentanyl intoxication, and recent methamphetamine use, according to the report.
The examiner’s ruling was delayed until Monday because it needed “further testing and investigation by the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office, Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension and the FBI.”
Earlier Monday, an independent autopsy conducted by doctors hired by the legal team representing Floyd’s family found he died from asphyxia due to sustained forceful pressure.
