Cody Longo’s cause of death revealed months after he was found dead in Austin

Actor and musician Cody Longo died in Austin, Texas, earlier this year, reportedly of chronic alcohol use.

The exact cause of the “Hollywood Heights” and “Days of Our Lives” actor’s death was described as “chronic ethanol abuse,” with the manner of his death ruled as natural, according to a Travis County Medical Examiner’s Office report obtained by TMZ. (Ethanol is the main chemical compound found in alcoholic drinks.)

Representatives for the medical examiner’s office were not immediately available Monday to respond to The Times’ request for comment.
