Prince may have been dead for several hours before he was found inside an elevator in his mansion, a report over the weekend says.

A day before his body was found, the singer was given IV fluids at a Minneapolis-area hospital, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported, citing an unnamed source with knowledge of the investigation into his death.

The paper reported that a paramedic responding to the 911 call to his estate told law enforcement officers and others at the scene that Prince might have been dead for at least six hours before his body was found.
