MENTOR, Ohio - The Lake County Coroner’s Office has announced the cause of death for Erica McSween. The 26-year-old Mentor resident died in her home last month of an accidental drug overdose.

The Lake County Coroner said they found a combination of drugs, including oxycontin and heroin, in McSween’s body. 

Erica McSween was the daughter of Annie McSween, who was murdered in November outside the bar she worked at in Mentor-on-the-Lake. That murder has yet to be solved.
