Sources close to authorities’ investigation into Prince’s death told the Minneapolis Star-Tribune on Monday that they’re investigating whether painkillers played a role.
“Several familiar with the probe have told the Star Tribune that painkillers may have taken a toll on the musician during his final weeks,” the paper writes.
