Reports that comedian Andy Dick was found unresponsive on a street in Hollywood sparked immediate fears for his life after an apparent drug overdose. Video and photographs circulating online showed the 59-year-old slumped on concrete steps, prompting widespread concern among fans and on social media.
Emergency responders attended the scene after bystanders called for help. Witnesses reported that friends administered Narcan, the opioid-reversal drug, before paramedics from the Los Angeles Fire Department arrived. Dick was not transported to hospital. Shortly afterwards, he spoke briefly to media outlet TMZ, saying he was 'alive and OK' and '100 per cent fine. 110 per cent,' offering reassurance to those who feared the worst.
