December 7, 2024
Actor John Lithgow, known for his role as Dick Solomon in the NBC sitcom "3rd Rock From the Sun," has described losing his "dear friend" and colleague Doug McGrath to a sudden heart attack two years ago as "such a traumatic thing to experience." Lithgow, a three-time cancer survivor who beat skin cancer and previously underwent a prostatectomy, spoke about how he's coped with his friend's November 2022 death in a recent interview on NPR journalist Rachel Martin’s podcast "Wild Card." " ... Two years ago, I directed that wonderful New Yorker, Doug McGrath, in his one-man show that he'd written for himself. He had a wonderful little off-Broadway success with it and was in his third week of a run. He was going to do it as long as he wanted in a tiny theater downtown. And he didn't show up at the theater one night because in his office by himself at about 4 in the afternoon, he'd lain down, had a heart attack and died at age 64."

Bolivar, Missouri – Nasya had been having a rough four weeks showing more signs of her heart struggling. We were at the cardiologist last Monday and he said all was normal. We went to her pediatrician on Wednesday, and she received her four month vaccinations ,which the doctor said would be good before her surgery. By Friday she was running a low grade fever and sleeping most of the day; this was not abnormal after a round of vaccinations. Sunday she had developed more congestion. Monday and Tuesday I was focused on trying to keep her nose clear to help her breathing. Tuesday night she was more lethargic which I thought she was just tired because she had been up most the day. However, at bedtime she was getting limp and that was when we called 911 and from there her heart stopped.

Suspect who allegedly stabbed a man in North Portland ‘loses consciousness,’ dies in police custody

PORTLAND, Ore. — A man accused of a stabbing in North Portland Wednesday night died while in police custody. Around 10:05 p.m., police officers responded to a stabbing at a convenience store at the intersection of North Going Street and Interstate Avenue. Portland Police Bureau (PPB) investigators said that a 43-year-old man confronted a 19-year-old man outside the store; both men knew each other. The 43-year-old allegedly punched the 19-year-old in the face, then cut him in the back of his shoulder with a knife. The 19-year-old, police say, then threw a battery-powered leaf blower at the other man, hitting him in the back. The officers later found the stabbed 19-year-old, and he was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Police officers searched the area for the suspect and found him nearby at North Interstate Avenue and Humboldt Street, where he had fallen on the sidewalk. He required help by officers to sit up and later laid back down, after which officers rolled him onto his side to help him breathe. The police officers determined he had been involved in the stabbing and detained him in handcuffs “without resistance or force used,” while also requesting non-emergency medical response. However, about four minutes later, the officers upped their request to emergency medical services (EMS), as the man “lost consciousness.” Officers removed the handcuffs, according to PPB, and began CPR until paramedics arrived and took over. For 19 minutes, AMR and Portland Fire & Rescue attempted life-saving efforts, but the man was pronounced dead.
