Former child actress and Heroes star Hayden Panettiere was found dead in her South Carolina home after reportedly going into cardiac arrest after an apparent overdose.
As reported by TMZ, emergency medical service personnel responded to reports of an "unresponsive female" at 1:51 p.m. on Sunday (Aug. 16). An unidentified friend of Panettiere made the call to authorities to report that she was in cardiac arrest inside her Greenville residence. Paramedics and police officers attempted to resuscitate the actress with "advanced cardiac life support," but their attempts were unsuccessful, and she was **** ounced dead by 2:32 p.m. on Sunday. She was 36.
An autopsy is expected to be performed on Monday (Aug. 17) to determine the cause of death, but authorities said that her death is not being treated as suspicious. Police added that there were no signs of foul play, but her death is under investigation.
After making her on-screen debut in a commercial at just 11 months old, Panettiere started her acting career as a child actress. She later starred as Princess Dot in the animated Pixar film A Bug's Life in 1998, but is perhaps best known for her role as Claire Bennet in the series Heroes. Other roles included the series Nashville, Scream 4 and Scream VI, the Kingdom Hearts series of games, Remember the **** ans, and the PlayStation 4 game Until Dawn.
