Just hours ago on Friday David Hasselhoff was rushed to a hospital by ambulance after suffering a seizure, reports RadarOnline.com.

Hasselhoff’s semi-anonymous neighbor “Christian” (he asked to keep his last name private), told RadarOnline.com that he saw the ambulance arrive at Hasselhoff’s home. “I asked one of the paramedics how David was doing and he told me his eyes were rolling back into his head, he was drooling and that he’d had a seizure.” Unfortunately, said Christian, “this isn’t the first time this has happened to him.”

Hasselhoff has a long history of alcoholism, and had been drinking the past two days. Sources also tell RadarOnline.com that the former Baywatch star has been on anti-seizure medication.

Sources say that David’s daughter Hayley called 911, and he was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Medical center in Los Angeles after the seizure.

“Paramedics were called to the (address omitted) in Encino for medical aid,” Los Angeles City Fire Department spokesman Erik Scott told RadarOnline.com. “Paramedics arrived at approximately 11:51 am and later transported the patient a nearby hospital.”
