Rizzo Removed on Gurney From Courthouse
2011-02-25
Former Bell City Manager Robert Rizzo was removed on a gurney Wednesday during his preliminary hearing.

Rizzo was seated on a bench outside the courtroom at the downtown LA Criminal Courts Building when paramedics arrived at 12:30 p.m. He was talking to attorneys during a break. Rizzo complained of chest pains and light-headedness.

Rizzo, who was responsive, had a towel over his face as paramedics removed him from the building. He was transported to Good Samaritan Hospital near downtown Los Angeles.

Hospital officials would not give an update on Rizzo's condition.

Praps was CPS (Cadaver Procurement Section) what got him -- obscure reference to the final scene from Seconds.

#3  Is this really any surprise? Look at his photos, he's a walking PSA for heart disease and obesity.

#2  Nah, his last words were to his lawyer: "Don't tell Edith where the Kruggerrands are!"
