Following the rapper’s complaints, he then collapsed onto the floor. Those with him at the time of the incident immediately sprang into action and phoned for an ambulance.
“We’re told the rapper has a history of asthma — so his entourage sprung to look for his inhaler — but it was too late … he had collapsed to the floor,” TMZ reports. “We’re told an ambulance was called, and X was transported to a nearby hospital.”
TMZ reports that DMX is currently undergoing breathing treatments at a local hospital.
Back in 2005, DMX showed up hours late to a sentencing appearance due to an alleged asthma attack. Due to his tardiness, X was given an extra 10 days to his 60-day jail sentence.
