Music icon Prince dead at 57

  • 8 years ago
Singer, musician and songwriter Prince was found dead at his Minnesota home on Thursday. The 57-year-old was discovered not breathing after an emergency call in an elevator at Paisley Park, which houses his estate and studio. While no cause of death was given, Jason Kamerud, the chief deputy for the Carver County Sheriff's Office, said the local medical examiner would conduct an autopsy. His death shocked not only the legions of fans who had thought him to be otherworldly and invincible but also those who had spotted him out and about in recent days. Last week, Prince's plane made an emergency landing due to a medical issue. His representative later said the singer has been battling a bad case of the flu.
