The two descriptions were ultimately connected to the same medical emergency involving Presley, who was staying at the facility. Santa Monica police responded to the property and discovered Presley dead when they arrived, according to a statement released by the department.
The sequence leaves a striking timeline: Presley checked into the facility at around 10 p.m. Saturday, an emergency response was dispatched at 9:35 a.m. Sunday, and his death was officially pronounced just 10 minutes later.

The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner confirmed that Presley’s death was pronounced at 9:45 a.m. on September 20, 2026, by responding paramedics. In a statement to People, the Medical Examiner’s office said the investigation remained ongoing and that only limited information was available at that stage. Santa Monica police are the investigating law enforcement agency.
Authorities have not said exactly when Presley became unresponsive or how long he had been dead before he was discovered. A law enforcement source told NBC News that Presley was found in the room where he had been sleeping and was “cold to the touch,” suggesting that ali he had likely been dead for some time before he was found.
