Hayden Panettiere’s on-and-off boyfriend, Brian Hickerson, and his brother, Zach Hickerson, were at the Greenville, South Carolina, residence where the actor died over the weekend, according to a police report released Tuesday. The report details their presence but does not elaborate on the circumstances of Panettiere’s death. The Daily Caller reported that Zach Hickerson was ‘very emotional’ at the scene. No cause of death has been released. Panettiere, known for her roles in “Heroes” and “Scream,” had a history of struggles with substance abuse, though those were not cited as a factor in reports of her death. The investigation remains ongoing, and authorities have not yet determined the cause of death or whether any charges will be filed. The status of the investigation and the release of a full autopsy report remain outstanding.
