O.J. Simpson robbery witness has heart attack

A witness in the O.J. Simpson robbery case has been rushed to the hospital after suffering from a heart attack. A source says that Bruce Fromong was taken to the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after his heart quit beating.

On Monday Fromong complained to severe chest pains, and a source says the Simpson robbery witnesses “heart has stopped and had to be restarted.”

 

Fromong claims he witnessed O.J. Simpson and five other men storm the room of memorabilia dealer Alfred Beardsley and rob him of his O.J. sports collection. Simpson was arrested and is currently held in jail without bail.

 

Simpson says he did nothing wrong as he was only trying to get personal property back. Victims of the alleged robbery claims they were held at gunpoint by Simpson’s crew while the men stole the sports memorabilia.

 

Simpson, who was acquitted of murder charges in 1995 of the murder of his wife and her friend, has been charged with two counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, assault with a deadly weapon, and burglary charges. If convicted he could face up to 30 years for each count.
