A call log from the emergency response to Perez Hilton's 4 August mental health crisis in Miami-Dade, Florida, recorded a report that the celebrity blogger had said during a TikTok Live broadcast that he would hurt police, according to TMZ, which published details from the record on 4 September. IBTimes UK has not independently reviewed the log or verified the reported comment.

For context, authorities responded to Hilton's home on 4 August after receiving multiple calls about a livestream showing alarming behaviour. The Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office later said the individual was safely recovered and taken by Miami-Dade Fire Rescue to a local hospital for medical attention.

Dispatch Log Records Reported Comment About Police

According to TMZ, one call-log entry referred to the TikTok broadcast and recorded that the subject had expressed suicidal intent and said he would hurt police.

The record, as described by TMZ, does not establish that Hilton addressed a threat directly to an officer, identified any particular officer or physically confronted police. A dispatch log records information relayed to and among emergency personnel and does not necessarily establish that every reported detail was independently verified.

TMZ reported that fire and rescue crews were told they could leave the area at about 9:13 p.m. before officers requested their return nearly two hours later. Emergency crews then entered the home with police, according to the outlet.

The available reporting does not explain why officers changed their instructions during that interval. It also does not establish that Hilton was arrested or charged in connection with the reported comment. TMZ's 4 September report did not report an arrest or criminal charge arising from it.

Sister Reportedly Called 911 During Emergency

TMZ previously reported that Hilton's sister called 911 after finding him injured and behaving in a way that alarmed her. The outlet said she then removed his children from the home before emergency crews completed their response.

A Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office incident report later obtained by TMZ said fire rescue personnel treated Hilton at the scene for multiple injuries and an overdose before he was transported to hospital.

Hilton's brother-in-law later said on The Perez Hilton Podcast that Hilton had also suffered multiple broken bones after falling several times during the episode, according to TMZ. That account came from a family member rather than an independent medical source.

Hilton's family separately said on 6 August that he had been experiencing a 'severe mental health crisis' and that his children, niece and sister had been inside the home shortly before the livestream incident. The family said they left once it became clear he was harming himself.

Current Treatment Status Has Not Been Confirmed

Hilton's family said on 16 August that he remained hospitalised and was receiving treatment in an inpatient setting under the care of medical and mental health professionals. The statement said his health and recovery remained the family's priority.

TMZ's 4 September report said Hilton appeared to remain in inpatient mental health treatment but presented that as an impression rather than a confirmed update. No more recent statement from Hilton or his family confirming his treatment status was cited in that report.

The dispatch material provides only a partial account of what responders were told during the emergency. It should not be treated as a clinical record or as independent proof of every allegation recorded during the response.

The same caution applies to the reported TikTok comment. Without an independently reviewed recording of the relevant portion of the broadcast or an official account confirming the circumstances, the wording remains an allegation attributed to emergency records reported by TMZ.
