CHICAGO—Tests show that Prince died of an opioid overdose, a law-enforcement official told The Associated Press on Thursday. After he died, authorities began reviewing whether an overdose was to blame and whether he had been prescribed drugs in the preceding weeks. The official, who is close to the investigation, spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media.
