Anne Heche died from smoke inhalation and thermal injuries … which she obviously sustained when her car went flying through the home of a woman in Mar Vista a couple weeks ago … this according to the L.A. County Coroner.
The Coroner notes another significant factor that contributed to her death was a sternal fracture due to blunt trauma. That essentially means part of her chest was crushed in the accident … which left her in a coma for the remainder of her life.
Anne’s death has been listed as accidental.
