Police are looking into the death of the former chief fundraiser for ex-Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich as a "death-suicide investigation," an Illinois mayor said Sunday, CNN reported.
Financier Christopher Kelly told police shortly before he died that he took an "overdose of drugs," Country Club Hills, Illinois, Mayor Dwight Welch said.
Kelly had recently undergone surgery and was taking drugs following the operation, Welch said. Welch said he did not know which drugs Kelly was taking.
Country Club Hills police found several drugs in Kelly's black 2007 Cadillac Escalade, but they were not sure yet whether they were prescribed medication, Welch said. Country Club Hills is about 27 miles south of Chicago.
