PRINCE DIED OF OPIOID DRUG OVERDOSE

Prince died from an opioid drug overdose ... according to multiple reports on the medical examiner's testing.

The ME's Office has been conducting toxicology testing on the singer, and 3m360 has confirmed the results point to an "opioid overdose."

We broke the story ... 6 days before his death, Prince had nearly died from a Percocet overdose that forced an emergency landing in Moline, IL ... where he had to get a "save" shot.

Percocet is an opioid -- a combination of oxycodone and acetaminophen (Tylenol) -- but the AP report doesn't specify what opioid was in Prince's system.

As we've reported, Dr. Michael Schulenberg was at Paisley Park the morning Prince died there -- and Dr. Howard Kornfeld's son was also there with opioids used to treat addiction. Schulenberg's attorney has said he did not give Prince any meds that morning.

This is the first picture of the six-year-old girl who was 'found unconscious in a pool of blood ' by the bodies of her dad and two dogs at their family home.

Little Keziah Flux-Edmonds was rushed to hospital but died shortly afterwards while her father Darren Flux-Edmonds, 44, died at the scene on Wednesday morning.

The £250,000 four-bedroom house on a new-build estate in East Cowes, Isle of Wight, has been sealed off as forensics officers combed the house for clues into the tragic incident.

Police today named the youngster and her dad Darren, who it is believed split up with Keziah's mother just weeks ago.

He recently posted an ominous message on his Facebook , which read: "Lord, my heart hurts right now. I have no idea what I need, but you do. Please help."

Shocked neighbours, friends and one of Keziah's teachers have paid tribute to the "Disney -mad" youngster today as floral tributes were left outside the house.
