As previously reported, TMZ reported on March 2 that the “Hustlin” rapper, 42, is currently hooked up to a life support machine and is being treated in the cardiac unit, possibly indicating that he suffered a heart attack. A source told the website that the machine had taken over his heart and lung functions.
The Davie Police Department confirmed to Us Weekly that emergency officials were called to Ross’ house in Davie, Florida, on Thursday, March 1, around 3:30 a.m. when the rapper was found unresponsive and breathing heavily. The person who called 911 attempted to wake Ross and saw that he was “slobbing out the mouth,” according to police.
This is not the Grammy nominee’s first health scare: Ross has a history of seizures. In 2011, he was hospitalized in Birmingham, Alabama, after having two seizures in a six-hour period. Ross later attributed them to lack of sleep.
