Hip-hop star Rick Ross was hospitalized in Florida early Thursday after being taken ill at his Miami-area home, police in Davie, Fla., confirmed.
Police and emergency teams were called to his home after he was “found unresponsive,” according to a dispatch report filed by police and sent to USA TODAY.
The report showed a 911 caller sought help for a man fitting Ross’ description “in distress” who was breathing heavily, “slobbing out the mouth,” and briefly combative.
Davie police had no other information because the call to Ross’ home turned out not to be a law enforcement matter, said Sgt. Mark Leone, spokesman for Davie police.
