Brad Renfro dies at 25


Troubled actor Brad Renfro, who first starred opposite Susan Sarandon and Tommy Lee Jones in the 1994 film "The Client," died Tuesday morning following a night of drinking, the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office has confirmed.

The cause of the 25-year-old actor's death was not immediately known.

Renfro had a history of drug problems, including an arrest two years ago in Downtown Los Angeles for allegedly trying to buy heroin. In May 2006, he spent 10 days in jail after pleading no-contest to driving while intoxicated and pleading guilty to attempted possession of heroin.

Though an autopsy is planned for Wednesday or Thursday, results of a toxicology test to determine whether drugs were a factor in his death will take six to eight weeks.
