According to new reports at least one arrest has been made in connection with the death of “Friends” sitcom star Matthew Perry.

Perry died on October 28 after an apparent drowning in his home in Los Angeles. He was 54.

Perry’s autopsy results, which were released in December, detected trace amounts of ketamine in his stomach. His death was listed due to the “acute effects of ketamine.”

“The Department has an open and ongoing investigation into Matthew Perry‘s death,” authorities said.  

When Fox News Digital asked about the status of the investigation, the U.S. Attorney’s Office responded, “no comment.”

Los Angeles Police Capt. Scot Williams said in an email that the department was working with the DEA and U.S. Postal Inspection Service to determine why Perry had so much ketamine in his system when he died in October, The Associated Press reported.

United States attorney Martin Estrada announced five defendants, including two doctors, were arrested and charged with multiple counts during a live press conference.
