Actress Hayden Panettiere, 36, was found unresponsive at her temporary residence in Greenville, South Carolina, on Sunday afternoon, according to a police report. Emergency medical personnel pronounced her dead at the scene after responding to a 911 call placed by her boyfriend, Brian Hickerson, and his brother, Zach Hickerson.
