Clearwater Police Department has released its final report on the death of Hulk Hogan, concluding that the wrestling legend died of an acute myocardial infarction on July 24, 2025. Hogan, whose legal name was Terry Bollea, was 71 years old at the time. Police found no evidence of criminal wrongdoing.

The 72-page report, released in early June 2026, drew on interviews with responding officers, medical professionals, and Hogan’s occupational therapist. Medical records showed Hogan had a documented history of atrial fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm, as well as leukemia at the time of his death.

Officers were called to Hogan’s home in Clearwater, Florida, on the morning of July 24, 2025. The report classifies the death as an attended natural death, meaning Hogan was not alone when he passed. His daughter, Brooke Hogan, had publicly criticized the length and handling of the investigation in the months before the report was released.

Hogan was one of professional wrestling’s most recognized performers across four decades. He rose to global fame in the 1980s as a central figure in the WWF, later WWE, before moving into film and television work. Tampa Bay Times first reported on the department’s release of the full report and its findings. Much like the ongoing debate about major sports figures navigating transitions after their prime years, Hogan’s later-career health struggles had been publicly discussed for years before his death.

Hogan had spoken openly about deteriorating health, including a long history of back surgeries from his years in performance. The atrial fibrillation documented in his medical records is a condition that wearable health technology increasingly helps people monitor. Devices like the Oura Ring 5, released this year, can track irregular heart rhythms continuously — a category of monitoring that did not exist in the form it does now when Hogan first began experiencing cardiac symptoms.

Brooke Hogan’s criticism of the investigation raised public questions about how the family was kept informed during the months-long process. The department said its conclusions were consistent with all physical and medical evidence collected. The case is now formally closed, with no criminal referrals made. Hogan’s health wearables and personal monitoring had been closely watched in his later years, a level of care that reflects how everyday health tracking technology has changed for aging athletes over the past decade.

The investigation is closed. For fans who grew up watching Hogan perform in his prime, the report closes a period of uncertainty about what happened on that July morning in Clearwater.
