Prince nearly died of an overdose on percocet a week ago today. They had to make a pit stop from Atlanta in Moline (on the Illinois/Iowa border) just 48 minutes away from landing in Minneapolis (original destination). Reports from TMZ said Prince was reported being seen going to Walgreens 4 times in just a few days time and on the last night before his death he was seen pacing the parking lot seemingly very agitated. Prince had hip surgery around 2010, reportedly.
