Hayden Panettiere found dead by friend in home after ‘cardiac arrest’: 911 call

Hayden Panettiere was found dead by a friend in her South Carolina home, according to a new report.

Paramedics responded to a call about an “unidentified female” in “cardiac arrest,” with law enforcement sources telling TMZ on Monday that the call came in at 1:51 p.m.

While emergency responders attempted to resuscitate Panettiere” with “advanced cardiac life support” and chest compressions, the 36-year-old was pronounced dead at 2:32 p.m.

There were reportedly no signs of foul play, with the police telling TMZ the circumstances surrounding her death did not appear suspicious.

It remains unclear whether Panettiere’s on-again, off-again boyfriend, Brian Hickerson, was the one who placed the call.

Hickerson, who was first linked to Panettiere in 2018 and admitted to “abusing her” in a May statement, flew from Los Angeles to South Carolina with the “Heroes” alum on Saturday.

Her cause of death is not yet known at this time.

Per TMZ, the Greenville County coroner will perform an autopsy Monday.

News broke of Panettiere’s death over the weekend, with her father confirming the “tragic passing” to Page Six “with profound sadness.”
