null - Tennessee's chief medical examiner released a full toxicology report Tuesday for 22-year-old University of Missouri senior Riley Strain, whose body was found in the Cumberland River in March after a fraternity outing in Nashville.
Strain's blood alcohol level was .228 – more than twice the legal limit – when he died, and he also had Delta 9 in his system, per the toxicology report reviewed by Fox News Digital.
Evidence of pleural effusion, or water on the lungs, and pulmonary edema were also reported in the autopsy. In addition to the high alcohol content, evidence of caffeine, nicotine and marijuana was found in Strain's blood.
Strain's causes of death were listed as drowning and ethanol intoxication, and his manner of death was deemed accidental.
Strain was last seen on a spring formal fraternity trip in downtown Nashville on March 8. One of his friends called 911 the next morning and filed a police report, spurring a weekslong search.
