The LAPD have released a statement to OK! confirming the death of Johnson & Johnson heiress Casey Johnson. Officer Sara Faden tells OK! the details so far.

"Earlier today at about 11:51 this morning, our Wilshire area patrol officers responded to an ambulance death investigation in the 900 block of North Orlando Avenue. The L.A fire department also responded and pronounced Miss Casey Johnson dead at the scene. Through a preliminary death investigation it does appear it was a natural death as there was no foul play.  And of course the Los Angeles coroners office will conduct their own investigation, which includes a toxicology screening. There is no evidence at this time that there was any foul play."
