Two Canadian police officers have been credited with saving the life of VAN HALEN singer DAVID LEE ROTH - after he suffered a severe allergic reaction.
The rocker was pulled over on a stretch of highway in Oakland, Ontario in Canada last month (Jun08), and when cops approached the vehicle, they realised the star was in anaphylactic shock.
Roth has an allergy to nuts and was suffering a severe reaction after coming into contact with a contaminated substance.
The officers called an ambulance and kept Roth calm until paramedics arrived on the scene, according to Blabbermouth.net.
Constable Chris Thompson admits he didn't realise that he was dealing with a famous rock star when he attended to the crisis.
He says, "At the time I wasn't star struck, I was just trying to help him. The guy stuck out like a sore thumb. He was wearing a little silk scarf and flashy clothing - it's not something you see in Oakland too often." |

Oh man........I was going to have a secret contest and ship a DVD bootleg to the first person to point out the date and question it, but 99 percent of the bootlegs I have came from YOU!!!
When I read that story, the date clicked in my head, what was Dave doing in Canada whilst touring with Van Halen??? |

Roth scammer could face criminal charges: OPP
Posted By Monte Sonnenberg / SUN MEDIA
Brant OPP are investigating a man who passed himself off to police and others as Van Halen lead singer David Lee Roth.
Const. Larry Plummer of the Brant OPP said today that the man may have violated the Highway Traffic Act in May when he identified himself as the famous rock star to two constables in Oakland. Brant OPP pulled the man over when they saw him driving erratically.
After identifying himself as Roth, the man told police he was having an allergic reaction to nuts. Police stayed with him until paramedics took him to hospital.
After he was discharged, the impostor and two nurses went for drinks in a bar in downtown Brantford. The man got up on stage with the band that was performing and delivered a rendition of Ice Cream Man, a song Roth covered during his solo career.
“He scammed a lot of people,” Plummer said.
It is a violation of the Highway Traffic Act to lie about your identify during a traffic stop. If lying about your identity or predicament prevents police from conducting a proper investigation, the result could be obstruction of justice charges under the Criminal Code.
Plummer says they have identified the Roth impersonator. They haven’t located him and will not release his name. When police do find him, the Brant OPP wants to speak to him.
“He’s done this in other provinces and other states,” Plummer said. “He’s an old hand at it.”
