A copy of a police report obtained by gossip website TMZ.com reveals former Kris Kross rapper Chris Kelly may had overdosed on a combination of cocaine and heroine. The police report states that Kelly, 34, may have ingested a cocaine and heroine substance known as a “speedball,” the night before he died.From US Weekly.com:According to the report, Kelly’s mother, Donna Kelly Pratt, was the one who called 911 and told police about her son’s drug use. She allegedly told investigators that Kelly had an “extensive history of drug use,” and she had taken him home to recover before he passed out.
Kelly’s mother said in a statement:
“It is with deep sadness that we announce that our beloved Chris Kelly has passed away on May 1. To millions of fans worldwide, he was the trendsetting, backwards pants-wearing one-half of Kris Kross who loved making music. But to us, he was just Chris — the kind, generous and fun-loving life of the party. Though he was only with us a short time, we feel blessed to have been able to share some incredible moments with him. His legacy will live on through his music, and we will forever love him.”
The Fulton County Medical Examiner’s office conducted an autopsy on Kelly today to determine the exact cause of death.
