A search warrant has been issued for music icon Prince's home as investigation into the singer's sudden death still continues.
Recent reports stated that police in Carver County, Minnesota, have been granted a warrant to search the late singer's mansion in Paisley Park Studios, where he was found dead on April 21. The investigators have asked the judge to keep their reason behind the request of search warrant under wraps to protect the vital evidence.
Authorities are reportedly becoming suspicious over the cause of the music legend's death and are even suspecting an overdose of a prescription drug. They are also looking for the doctor who was allegedly prescribing him drugs in the weeks before his death.
"Detectives are increasingly looking at Prince's medical history and how he was able to obtain drugs that are only available on prescription," Mirror quoted a source as saying. The source also said that the late singer's place will be probably searched "from top to bottom" to look for drugs and other medical record.
It is also being investigated that whether a doctor was travelling with Prince when his plane had to make an emergency landing in Illinois less than a week he was found dead. The officials are reportedly suspicious that the singer had overdosed on the plane since he was given Narcan, an antidote for opioid overdose, to revive him.
The late singer was known to be suffering from a painful hip condition. He was even advised a hip replacement surgery, but he said to have denied the same since the operation required blood transfusion, a process that was strictly against his religious beliefs.
Meanwhile, a man claiming to be Prince's love-child has come forward to claim his $300 million inheritance. The unnamed man has contacted Heir Hunters International to help prove his claim that the late singer fathered him in the 1980s, Daily Mail reported. The firm has even started working to pin down the genealogy of the claimant.
Prince reportedly told an audience in March that he was writing a memoir, tentatively titled "The Beautiful Ones." Meanwhile, check out some of Prince's best music below:
