Daily Mail reported a neighbor heard partying at the residence at 1am and a woman loudly screaming "Don't do it" at 3:30am.
Another resident told the outlet that authorities arrived to the California home at 6am and overheard police interviewing a hysterical woman, who is believed to be Benjamin's girlfriend Diana Pinto, in the backyard.
The neighbor alleged: "I could hear somebody speaking really loud in the backyard. I looked outside and I saw what appeared to be his girlfriend outside talking to police, and she was pretty hysterical saying 'I can't believe it.'
The couple has been dating for two years, according to a neighbor

"She just kept swearing and saying, 'I can't believe it, I can't believe it.'' She was saying, 'I can't believe he would do that to himself.'
"She said, 'The family's going to hate me' and 'They're going to blame me.' I think she was feeling guilty for it happening... but I don't want to speculate [as to] what caused it. That was around 6.30-7am. They were out there for about an hour talking."
The resident added that Diana, who works at Fox News as a Post Production Coordinator, had come to the home regularly and is believed to be his girlfriend of at least two years.
Diana's social media pages are full of affectionate photos with the late star.

The neighbor said Lisa Marie, 52, was not at the home at the time and hasn't been for several weeks.
Other neighbors saw the Presley family gather at the home later in the day on Sunday.
Another resident said the famous family is "private."
The insider said: "They go out of their way to turn around and not even wave or anything. Not that they're rude, they just don't want anybody to know who they are."
