Las Vegas police have launched a homicide investigation into the death of B.B. King, a coroner's office said May 25, after the daughters of the blues guitar legend reportedly accused his aides of poisoning him.

B. B. King died in Las Vegas, aged 89 years. The one-time farmhand who became ‘King of the Blues’ sold millions of records worldwide with inductions into the Blues Foundation Hall of fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
