TMZ reports that officers arrived on the scene at 9:51 AM. Clearwater Fire & Rescue medics took over care at the residence before transporting Hogan to a nearby medical facility. Sadly, he was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Later that day, Major Nate Burnside of the Clearwater Police Department addressed the media in a short press briefing.

“Hulk died at 11:17 AM,” he said, before assuring the public that, “There are no signs of foul play or suspicious activity.”

The community had been holding onto hope in the weeks prior, as Hogan continued to recover from a series of surgeries.

His wife, Sky, whom he married in September 2023, had previously dismissed reports suggesting that he was in critical condition, assuring the public that his heart was 'strong.'
