Perry was found unresponsive at his Los Angeles home in October last year. A post-mortem examination found levels of ketamine in the actor's blood similar to that used for general anaesthesia during surgery.

LA police opened an investigation into his death in May to determine why Perry had so much of the drug in his system.

ABC News reported that multiple people had been arrested and are facing federal charges. Other outlets, including NBC News, said at least one arrest had been made.

Police said they would hold a press conference with more details later on Thursday.
