No criminal charges will be brought over the death of US musician Prince in April 2016, prosecutors say. The singer, 57, died from an accidental overdose of the painkiller fentanyl, an opioid many times more powerful than heroin.
Prosecutors in Minnesota said counterfeit pills containing the drug were found inside his home but they were unable to determine the source.
They said they had found no evidence of intentional wrongdoing. Prince was found unresponsive in a lift at his Paisley Park Studios, in the state of Minnesota, on 21 April 2016. The prosecutors announced their findings on Thursday following a two-year investigation into the pop icon's death.
