Hnew information on the death of actress Hayden Panettiere at the age of 36. Zach Hickerson, Brian Hickerson's brother, with whom the artist had an unstable relationship, gave a revealing interview to TMZ where he explains how it all happened once he was present at the time it happened.

 

“There are many assumptions, speculations and accusations circulating at the moment. The truth will come out as the authorities complete and disclose more details of the investigation. And this is important because the people who loved and loved Hayden deserve the truth,” he explained.

“ At the moment, I want to clarify my involvement to keep the focus on the fact that we have lost one of the most precious people on this Earth and to allow those who cared about it to live mourning without noise, chaos and additional misinformation created and propagated by both the media and the public,” he added. 

What happened on August 16th? The chronology of events

Zach confirmed that the residence in South Carolina, where Panettiere was found last Sunday, August 16, was an Airbnb. The young man explained that after not hearing from his brother or sister - in - law, he went to that house and woke up Brian, who was asleep.

Shortly thereafter, the two found Hayden unconscious. Then Zach called the ambulance and Brian administered Narcan to the actress.

It is recalled that this medication was found at the site. Narcan is a treatment that quickly reverses the effects of an overdose. 

“On Sunday morning, I woke up in my Airbnb, dressed and went to church. I texted Brian that morning on my way there. We were all going to lunch together and play golf, Zach explained.

“ When I left the church, I called and texted both of them. Since I couldn't reach Brian or Hayden, I assumed they might have gone back to sleep. I went to the Airbnb, hit him hard, which woke Brian from a nap the two of them did on the sofa bed in the living room. When we tried to wake Hayden for lunch, we realized she was unconscious.”, he said.

“I immediately called 911, and Brian administered Narcan. Then, we performed CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) together, with a loud voice connection until the arrival of the firefighters. We followed while they tried every possible measure to save her life.”, he added.

Zach confesses to being “deeply devastated” by Panettiere’s death. 

Brian Hickerson dated the actress for several years and was arrested for domestic violence, but both had re-approached after he got out of prison.
