Police investigating Michael Jackson\'s death looked into his medical treatment today, seeking to interview one of the pop king\'s doctors and seizing a car that they said may contain drugs or other evidence, according to a report on msnbc.com.



As medical examiners began an autopsy for Jackson, police towed a BMW from Jackson\'s rented home \"because it may contain medications or other evidence that may assist the coroner in determining the cause of death,\" police spokeswoman Karen Rayner said.



She said the car belongs to one of Jackson\'s doctors whom police wanted to interview. Rayner stressed the doctor was not under criminal investigations.



The Los Angeles Times has identified the physician as Dr. Conrad Murray, 51, a Las Vegas cardiologist, and reports that Murray was administering CPR to Jackson when paramedics arrived.



It is also reported that Jackson had received a shot of Demerol before going into cardiac arrest.
