Matthew Perry<\/strong>‘s death will remain a mystery for now — because officials are waiting for some key tests to be done before weighing in definitively on how he died.<\/p>\n The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office just published their findings on an initial autopsy of the late “Friends” actor — and they’re deferring his cause of death … pending toxicology results and further investigation, which could take weeks to complete.<\/p>\n They’re also not indicating the manner of death at this point … although our sources have told us no foul play<\/strong> is suspected, and no illicit narcotics<\/strong> were found on the premises.<\/p>\n The only other notable detail from his autopsy report is that they note he died at his residence — and that his body is now ready to be released to his family for burial\/cremation. A probe into the circumstances of his death is underway with law enforcement.<\/p>\n TMZ broke the news … first responders rushed to his property on a cardiac arrest call, and Matthew was found unresponsive in his hot tub … this after an apparent drowning. The exact sequence of events is unclear, but he was eventually declared deceased on the scene.<\/p>\n Like we told you … MP had played pickleball Saturday morning for a couple hours before returning home and sending his assistant on an errand. Sometime later, the assistant returned, discovered his boss … and then called 911.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/imagez.tmz.com\/image\/75\/16by9\/2023\/10\/29\/75ffc9eb1715419dac2149d57fbbb7ff_md.jpg\")
