Presley Gerber succumbed to a substance-fueled cardiac arrest, as per dispatch call recordings
According to the 911 dispatch audio recording, authorities were called to a location in the 1000 Block of Berkeley Street at 9:35 a.m. on September 20.
On September 21, the Santa Monica Police Department revealed that they were investigating Presley’s demise as a suspected case of fatal substance intoxication. However, they found no signs of foul play.
According to Page Six, an automated voice saying “cardiac arrest” and “ove**ose” can be heard on the dispatch call. An operator is then heard apparently upgrading the call.
According to a source, police, ambulance, and EMTs responded to the scene and were there for three hours, but could not resuscitate Presley.
The authorities found him lifeless upon arrival and pronounced him deceased at 9:45 a.m.
The coroner’s office has completed an initial autopsy and told the media that “additional testing and/or studies were requested in order to make a determination” on the cause of demise.

The address mentioned in the dispatch call recordings matches the Santa Monica rehab facility where Presley reportedly checked himself in over the weekend, because “he knew he needed help,” a source told Page Six.
“He was struggling with a lot of things, but he wanted so, so badly to be free of his a**ictions,” the source lamented. “He was such a good kid.”

“He had not been doing well. He’s always suffered from a huge lack of self-esteem and had trouble accepting his real self and feeling fully confident in who he was as a person.”
Some netizens found it suspicious that Presley managed to get his hands on narcotics while in a rehab facility, and urged his family to “investigate” or “sue” the establishment.
Presley, who followed his mother and sister into the world of modeling, previously admitted to misusing liquor, narcotics, painkillers, anti-anxiety prescription medications, and general anesthetics. He also battled mental health issues.
“He was such a kind person, but he grew up in that strange Malibu world where it’s very easy to fall into dr**s and drinking as you are growing up,” the source explained.
“It can be brutal out there. Yes, it’s a lovely lifestyle, but it’s also very isolated in a way, and that can be hard and make substances an easy temptation to turn to. It’s a very carefree way of life, but with that comes other temptations.”
