Heavy D Died from Blood Clot, Say Sources

Rapper Heavy D who died on Nov 8, had fallen victim to pulmonary embolism - a blood clot in his lung, says report. The 44- year-old star had collapsed outside his Beverly Hills condo after he suffered difficulty breathing while returning from a morning shopping trip, police claimed at the time.

The rapper, whose real name was Dwight Arrington Meyers, later died at Los Angeles Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, the People.com reported.
