Petty was found unconscious at his home, not breathing and in full cardiac arrest, early in the morning of October 2, 2017. His death was prematurely reported by media outlets that afternoon, although the initial reports were retracted after the Los Angeles Police Department announced that it had inadvertently indicated his death to the media without confirming it. It was confirmed later that evening by his family and manager. He died at the University of California-Los Angeles' Santa Monica hospital.
