The search warrant named Michael Todd Schulenberg, MD, a family physician and former employee of North Memorial Medical Center in Robbinsdale, Minn., according to the report. Dr. Schulenberg had also seen Prince on April 7, according to the report. The physician said he prescribed Prince medication, but the warrant does not mention the prescription painkillers the artist was allegedly using or if he was being treated for opioid abuse, according to the report.
Dr. Schulenberg is no longer an employee of the North Memorial Health Care System, according to the report. A system spokeswoman declined to provide further comment to the Los Angeles Times on Dr. Schulenberg or Prince. Dr. Schulenberg was unavailable for comment, according to the report.
The cause of the musician’s death has yet to be determined and the investigation is ongoing, according to the report.
