Feds Conduct More Searches At Prince's Paisley Park Complex

CHANHASSEN, Minn. (CBSNewYork/CBS Minnesota) -- More than a dozen cars led by investigators entered Prince's Paisley Park complex in suburban Minneapolis Tuesday evening, and sources told CBS News a search is underway.

The vehicles were led by the Carver County, Minnesota Sheriff's Department, though most were unmarked, WCCO-TV, CBS Minnesota reported. The sheriff's department said detectives are "revisiting the scene at Paisley Park as a component of a complete investigation."

No other information was immediately available.

Meanwhile, an attorney said Prince had agreed to an intervention for painkiller addiction hours before his death.

The Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday that the artist was seen by Dr. Michael Schulenberg the day before he died.

The paper says the doctor performed some tests and went to Paisley Park to drop of those results. When he arrived on April 21, however, investigators were already on the scene and Prince was dead.

According to the Los Angeles Times, a detective filed the search warrant on April 27 and carried it out last Thursday.

Schulenberg is no longer employed at North Memorial Clinic in Minnetonka, Minnesota.

In late April, a judge approved the Carver County sheriff's request to seal the search warrant and any accompanying documents surrounding investigations into Prince's death.

Thus, the exact details will not be released on what police were looking for when they searched Paisley Park shortly after Prince was found dead.

Numerous reports suggested law enforcement did find prescription pain pills in their search, CBS Minneapolis reported.

Prince was found unresponsive in an elevator at his Paisley Park studio complex on Thursday, April 21. He was declared dead shortly thereafter.

He was 57.
