Bo Phut police station superintendent Yuttana Sirisombat said Warne had been suffering chest pains before arriving in Thailand.
A German woman was questioned by Thai police after she entered the back of the ambulance to move Warne's body off Koh Samui island.
Paramedic Anuch Han-iam told The Sun that Warne was already unresponsive by the time medical help arrived at 5pm local time.
He said: "Shane’s friends were already trying to bring him back to life.

"I took over doing CPR while we waited for an ambulance. They were desperate. I think one was crying. They were really stressed and panicked.
"They kept trying to wake him and I heard someone saying, ‘Come on, Shane. Come on, Shane’.
"I could see they were all shocked and I just tried to concentrate and do my best. There were about four or five other people in the room. All men, there were no women."

Han-iam also stated that from the villa's appearance there was no sign that any kind of hard partying had occurred.
He added: "The villa was clean and I didn’t see any beer or cigarettes inside.
"There was nothing unusual that made me think they’d been partying. I didn’t know when I arrived that it was Shane Warne. But I know who he is, he’s a star.

"I did my best for him and gave all my energy. I’m so sorry that I couldn’t help him."
Sporting News chief executive Tom Hall has revealed Warne’s last meal was a plate of Vegemite toast.
“I have dined with Shane in many fine establishments, but rather than sample some of the local Thai fare, we tuck into a plate of Vegemite on toast,” Hall wrote in an article on the outlet’s website.
