(Phillip Bantz) While investigators have said the death of a promising Cape Coral musician was likely the result of an accidental or intentional overdose, an autopsy reveals apparently non-lethal amounts of drugs in the man's system. The report also indicates that injuries found inside 23-year-old Andrew J. Howard's throat are more significant than officials previously said.

Howard, a former guitarist with the now defunct heavy metal band "Twisted Method," was found dead inside his Cape Coral home Sept. 16, 2005. He had been lying in bed deceased for approximately 18 hours before being discovered by a member of his new band "The Fallen."

Rebecca Hamilton, a Lee County medical examiner, has ruled the cause of Howard's death as undetermined and the case remains a mystery nearly two years later. � Hamilton reported evidence of acute blunt trauma in the autopsy, which states that Howard's esophagus showed "multiple, irregular acute hemorrhages" and that his right sternothyroid muscle had "an irregular, acute 3.0 cm hemorrhage."
