Star bounty-hunter found dead in bathtub

WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif., June 29 (UPI) -- Domino Harvey, a wealthy British-born socialite, supermodel-turned-U.S. bounty hunter facing federal drug charges, was found dead in her Hollywood bathtub.

Harvey, 35, was pulled from the tub after police said a friend or relative called 911 to report a possible drowning.

The Los Angeles coroner was to perform toxicology tests Wednesday to see if drugs were involved. A spokesman for the coroner told The Times of London: "The hospital reported to us that they suspected a drug overdose."

Harvey was the daughter of Oscar-nominated actor Laurence Harvey. She became a Beverly Hills socialite and later launched a career as a supermodel in New York. She then startled everyone by becoming a professional bounty hunter.

She was arrested last month on federal drug charges, which carried a possible life sentence.

A movie about her life -- "Domino" -- has reportedly pushed back its U.S. release date from Aug. 19 to Nov. 4 to allow for updating, the report said.
