U.S. pop star Prince, the 57-year-old whose hits included "Purple Rain" and "Kiss," was found unresponsive on Thursday at his Minnesota home and was later declared dead, U.S. media reports said.
A local sheriff's office official would not confirm the identity of a dead person found at Prince's property, and Reuters was not able immediately to confirm the report.
Celebrity website TMZ, citing sources close to the star, was first to report Prince's death at the home in Paisley Park, in a Minneapolis suburb. The Associated Press later cited his publicist as confirming . . .
