He apparently ingested a large quanity of pain killers and they had to pump his stomach per the police report. When the officer asked him if he tried to harm himself he said yes.

I can't believe this.

Another case of better to wait for all the information....now they are saying an allergic reaction to pain meds. It certainly could be either, suicide attempt they may want to spin, allergic reactions, especially to such medication, do happen. TO has no documented history of drug use and suicide by meds doesn't fit his personality still...best to wait I think!

Well, Mike G just had 2 reporters on from the Dallas Fort Worth area and they both confirmed the police report. Also, it is being reported that he ingested somewhere in the vicinity of 30 of these pills. Just relaying what they are saying is all.

If they are writing it, there has to be something MORE besides what they are telling you. Fact is that taking 5 of those pain medications won't kill you. I have had friends that have taken 5 vicodin in a night and drank 20 beers, and while the ended up feeling like crap, they were no where near dying.

It wouldn't surprise me if it were true though, I am guessing that with his type personality it is somewhat a common occurence, if you could have one in this situation
