MIAMI (WSVN) -- New details have surfaced about the autopsy of the man accused in a gruesome cannibal attack.

The Miami Herald is reporting that preliminary results show Rudy Eugene did not have any remnants of flesh in his stomach.

Examiners did, however, find undigested pills. Toxicology results on the pills will take weeks to complete.

Police shot and killed the 31-year-old as they tried to get him to stop his attack against Ronald Poppo, on May 26.

Poppo remains at Jackson Memorial Hospital in extremely critical condition.
