A little over a month ago, former “Baywatch” star David Hasselhoff was making quite a ruckus while in London on business, getting alcohol poisoning and becoming violent towards hotel staff and a doctor was sent in to check up on him. Over the weekend, the actor seemed to have had another relapse, as he was found unconscious at his home and had to be taken to hospital at once, Radar Online reports.

The Hoff was found unresponsive at his Encino, Ca home around noon on Friday and was immediately taken in an ambulance to the nearest hospital. At the time word got out in the media, it was not known who had discovered the star in said condition, as neither was it revealed whether alcohol had been a factor or not. However, given Hasselhoff’s long struggle with alcoholism and the many public relapses he’s had so far, it’s a possibility the US media will not rule out until an official statement is released by Hoff’s camp.

“David Hasselhoff was found passed out at his home on Friday and an ambulance has been called, Radar Online has learned exclusively. ‘Paramedics were called to the (address omitted) in Encino for medical aid,’ Los Angeles City Fire Department spokesman Erik Scott told Radar Online exclusively. ‘Paramedics arrived at approximately 11:51 am and later transported the patient a nearby hospital.’ It is not yet known if alcohol is involved in the incident,” Radar writes.

For the time being, it is believed the actor is still being held under observation at the hospital. Further details on his condition should be released to the press soon. In the meanwhile, his estranged wife, Pamela Bach was seen going into a local clinic with the two daughters she has with the actor, which prompted speculation that David was being admitted there. Confirmation of that is still pending.

As also noted above, camp Hasselhoff has not made any comment yet regarding news of the recent hospitalization. Keep an eye on this space for updates on this.
