The husband of singer Corinne Bailey Rae died from a suspected drug overdose, a coroner heard Thursday at an inquest into the death of saxophonist Jason Rae.

Deputy Assistant Coroner Roger Chapman said a pathologist's report pointed to the "overdose" but that further tests were needed, BBC News reports.

There were no signs of trauma or violence, Detective Superintendent Steve Payne also stated at the hearing at Leeds Coroner's Court in England.

The body of Rae, 31, was found in a flat in Leeds on Saturday.

A 32-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of supplying controlled drugs in connection to the case, police said, but he has since been released on bail.
