RENO- (AP) Breaking News. According to a press release from the Washoe County Coroners Office today, preliminary toxicology reports revealed “high amounts of alcohol and other drugs” in the blood of legendary rocker Froggie the frog at the time of his death.

As the resulting buzz surrounding the report was felt around the world, family in Reno Nevada vehemently defended the dead frog. “We are confident that Froggie had nothing to do with that stuff. He was clean,” says Mr. Squiggles, Father of Froggie. Squiggles, who now resides in a 15 gallon tank at the 400 block of Mt. Rose Street said that the rest of the family is “100 percent behind our Froggie.”

In what has become a common sight at the Nation’s schools and universities, students at the University Of Nevada here in town held a candle-light vigil for the fallen amphibian, singing songs and sharing stories of how the frog had touched their lives. “We want to remember the good times and all the happiness he brought us,” cited long time senior Ryan Jerz, “He was a good frog. He’ll be missed.”

As the Nation come to grips with the loss of this cultural icon, the questions still remain about his demise. Was Froggie really over the demons that plagued him earlier in his career? And if so, how could the toxicology reports be explained? His family believes he was a victim of foul play. “We’re gonna find out what happened to our Froggie,” says Squiggles, “and my guess is you gots to start askin’ those people he was livin’ with, and that fish- that Beta person. We won’t rest ’till we see some justice round here.”
