WEST HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA: Hayden Panettiere's neighbors were reportedly once told to call authorities whenever they saw Brian Hickerson on their property in West Hollywood, California, where the late star’s condo was.

The ‘Nashville’ actress and Hickerson were in an on-and-off relationship from 2018 to 2022, which was marred by numerous incidents of alleged violence.

Now, TMZ has reported that a warning poster with Hickerson photos was also pasted at the Hancock condominiums at the end of August 2025, with a message that read, “If he is seen anywhere on this property, please call 911 immediately and report that he is trespassing on the premises.”

Mia Terrazas, whose condo was one door down from Hayden's, told the publication that the poster was issued by the Homeowners Association (HOA) after years of disturbances involving Hickerson.

The neighbour said she called cops "at least half a dozen times over disturbances at Hayden's apartment."

The former child actress was the owner of the condo, but Hickerson had been living there for the past two years.

As per Terrazas, the flyer was removed a week after it was posted, but she always feared Hickerson.

This new detail came after it was reported that Panettiere was found dead on Sunday, August 16, in Greenville, South Carolina, while Hickerson was sleeping in another room.

But according to the Greenville Police Department, “The preliminary investigation has not indicated any signs of foul play or suspicious circumstances. An acquaintance of Ms Panettiere placed the 911 call.”

Also, the Greenville County Coroner’s Office said, “At autopsy, no signs of trauma were discovered that would have contributed to the death. The cause and manner of death remain pending further investigation and the completion of additional studies.”

Before her death, the ‘Heroes’ star was open about her troubled relationship with Hickerson as she also mentioned about it in her book — ‘This Is Me: A Reckoning’. 

During an interview with Us Weekly in May, she even disclosed how she was shocked with herself also. “I’ve always seen myself as such a resilient and strong woman. The idea that I could allow something like this to happen to me blew my mind,” Panettiere said.

Sharing further, she added, “It blew the minds of the people that knew me best. So that whole experience, I kept as much of it to myself as possible because I didn’t want to drag anybody that I loved into [it], because I knew that they would want to protect me, and I wanted to keep them safe and emotionally safe. It was humiliating.”
