This comes less than a week after the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the Drug Enforcement Administration announced they have joined the investigation into the icon’s death.
A Carver County Sheriff’s Office vehicle and about a dozen unmarked vehicles entered the Paisley Park gates Tuesday afternoon, according to the Associated Press.
Investigators Want to Interview Doctor About Prince Case
AP is reporting that investigators are working to find out whether Prince died of a drug overdose and if a doctor had been prescribing him drugs in the weeks leading up to his death, and a since-sealed search warrant revealed more information.
“Dr. Michael Todd Schulenberg treated Prince on April 7 and April 20, and he prescribed ‘medications and prescriptions’ for the musician, according to the warrant, which was filed Thursday in Hennepin County and obtained by at least two news outlets before authorities moved to ensure it was sealed.”
The warrant reportedly did not specify which medications were prescribed for Prince or if he took them.
On Tuesday, TMZ was reporting that the visit was part of an active federal investigation into the doctors who prescribed medication to Prince.
Prince was found unresponsive in an elevator at Paisley Park on April 21. He was declared dead shortly thereafter. He was 57.
