LOS ANGELES, Dec. 30 (UPI) -- The autopsy performed on rock drummer Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan did not pinpoint a cause of death, the Orange County, Calif., coroner's office said.

The 28-year-old Avenged Sevenfold drummer was found dead Monday at his home in Huntington Beach.

His death is believed to have been due to natural causes, as police said there were no signs of foul play.

However, officials were awaiting the results of toxicology and tissue tests before assigning a cause of death, the Los Angeles Times said.

An autopsy performed on the musician's remains Tuesday proved inconclusive, the newspaper said.
