An autopsy has been completed on infomercial king Billy Mays. The Billy May Autopsy report indicated that the TV pitchman suffered a fatal heart attack in his sleep.

The  Hillsborough County Medical Examiner told reporters that Mays likely had hypertensive heart disease. The wall of the left ventricle of his heart and one of his arteries were enlarged.

It was first suspected that Mays may have died from head trauma since he was hit on the head during a rough landing at Tampa International Airport the day prior to his death. Investigators said that the head injury was a not a contributing factor.

Billy Mays funeral is set for Friday, July 3. It will take place at St. Mary Church in McKees Rocks, the Pittsburgh suburb where he was born.
