Hayden Panettiere Dead: Police Do Welfare Check on Brian Hickerson Family

Police are checking in on Brian Hickerson’s family.

Three days after Hayden Panettiere unexpectedly died while in Greenville, S.C., while with Brian and his brother Zach Hickerson, the Greenville Police Department confirmed to People Aug. 19 that officers “responded to a call for a welfare check at a home belonging to Brian Hickerson’s family on Wednesday morning.”

The spokesperson also noted, “The call is unrelated to the Hayden Panettiere death investigation and did not require an incident report.”

E! News has reached out to the Greenville Police Department for comment but has not yet heard back.

On the day of Panettiere’s Aug. 16 death, Brian and Zach were with her and were present while emergency medical services “attempted to perform life saving methods for an extended amount of time,” according to an incident report obtained by E! News.

As EMS arrived, they had begun treatment for an apparent overdose and cardiac arrest, according to dispatch audio obtained by People and TMZ.
