Autopsy says Harvey's death was overdose

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 3 (UPI) -- A Los Angeles coroner's report says bounty hunter Domino Harvey, whose life is featured in the movie "Domino," died of an accidental drug overdose.

The report released Friday said Harvey died June 27 from "acute fentanyl toxicity," the Los Angeles Times reported Saturday. Fentanyl is a pain killer more powerful than morphine.

Harvey, 35, was the daughter of the late British actor Laurence Harvey and supermodel Paulene Stone. She was found unconscious by a person hired by her family to watch her until her trial on federal drug trafficking charges.

"Domino," staring Keira Knightley and directed by Tony Scott, takes some liberties in telling Harvey's life story, the Times said. Knightley portrays her as a European fashion model who becomes a bounty hunter and goes on to have her own reality TV show. The movie is due out next month.

Harvey was indicted in May on charges of conspiring to possess and distribute more than 500 grams of methamphetamine in Mississippi.
