Video: 911 call before Gary Coleman’s death, wife says “blood everywhere”
The New York Post has obtained the audio from the 911 call Shannon Price made reporting the fall that would eventually lead to Diff’rent Strokes star Gary Coleman’s death last Friday.
It was recently revealed that Price and Coleman had been divorced for some time before the actor’s death, but it appears that Price was still the party authorized to decide whether Coleman remained on life support. In the call, Price says:
“I had my husband go make me some food downstairs, he just got home and I heard this big bang,” Price says in the call. “His head is bloody. There’s blood all over the floor. Send someone quick because I don’t know if he’s going to, like, be alive.”
Although Price and Coleman reportedly divorced in 2008, Price’s lawyer implies they were trying to work things out:
“They needed each other and loved each other. They wanted to work through their problems.”
