Police Did Hayden Panettiere Welfare Check Week Before She Died, Report Says
- On August 9, 2025, Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies conducted a welfare check at actor Hayden Panettiere's West Hollywood apartment after an acquaintance reported she was unresponsive to phone calls.
- The check followed concerns regarding Panettiere's on-again, off-again boyfriend, Brian Hickerson, as neighbors in the West Hollywood complex had been instructed to contact 911 if they spotted him on the property.
- When deputies arrived, Hickerson answered the door and reportedly told officers that Panettiere "did not feel good" and had been ill all day, leading deputies to clear the call as incident-free.
- Panettiere was found unresponsive on August 16 at a South Carolina Airbnb she shared with Hickerson, and paramedics were unable to revive the 36-year-old actor upon their arrival.
- The Greenville County Coroner revealed Panettiere's death resulted from "toxic effects of fentanyl, 4-ANPP, Alprazolam, Methocarbamol, and Quetiapine," while former heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko petitioned for legal guardianship over their 11-year-old daughter, Kaya Klitschko.
