LOS ANGELES, Feb. 29 (UPI) -- Officials are still waiting for the results of toxicology tests before determining the cause of Whitney Houston's death Feb. 11, the Los Angeles Times reported.

Police in Beverly Hills, Calif., have said they don't suspect foul play, but law enforcement sources told the Times the investigation into the recording star's death remains active. The insiders also said it could be a few more weeks before an official cause of death is announced.
