Kenneth Keith Kallenbach, one of Howard Stern's longtime Wack Pack members, has died Thursday in a Chester County, Pennsylvania hospital.

The cause of death is uncertain, but Kallenbach apparently contracted pneumonia in jail while being held on attempted child-abduction charges.

Kallenbach first appeared on the Howard Stern Show in the early 1990s and became a member of the Wack Pack. Kallenbach then moved on to Sirius and participated in many of Stern's shows.
