‘Diff’rent Strokes’ star Gary Coleman hospitalized
LOS ANGELES — “Diff’rent Strokes” actor Gary Coleman is in a Los Angeles hospital after suffering what he believes was a slight seizure. Coleman’s agent, Robert Malcolm, says the 41-year-old actor was taken by ambulance to a hospital shortly after 8 a.m. Wednesday after he began feeling “fuzzy” and vomited while resting at a hotel.
Malcolm says Coleman appeared to be fine minutes later, and a CAT scan at the hospital showed no problems. He says Coleman — who has had two failed kidney transplants — will receive dialysis and remain hospitalized overnight.
Malcolm says Coleman was in town to meet with producers of his latest film about removing a brief scene of frontal nudity that Coleman says was unauthorized. The meeting was rescheduled for Thursday.
