Andy Dick is speaking out after a frightening ordeal on a Los Angeles sidewalk left bystanders scrambling to save his life.
According to the New York Post, the 59-year-old comedian told TMZ he’s “alive and relieved he’s OK,” offering only a brief acknowledgment of the incident that had strangers fearing the worst.
Earlier Tuesday, people walking through Dick’s Hollywood neighborhood found him slumped on a staircase with his eyes closed and his glasses on the ground.
According to witnesses, one person tried propping him upright while another yelled for Narcan — the opioid-Overdose reversal medication kept on hand by many locals in the area. Someone produced a dose, administered it, and Dick reportedly regained consciousness moments later.
Dick didn’t explain what led up to the collapse or what he may have taken before losing consciousness, but the emergency Revived longtime concerns about his decades-long struggle with addiction.
The actor has been candid about the depths of that battle. In a 2016 interview with Vice, Dick said he had attempted sobriety “20 times” by the end of 2014 and had reached a point where drinking had become a matter of life and death.
