Emmy and Tony winning actress KRISTEN CHENOWETH suffered a seizure after she’s struck in the head by scaffolding while filming the GOOD WIFE on location in Brooklyn, New York.
The accident occurred around 5 PM EDT when Kristen was lensing a guest appearance on the hit CBS series in the Greenpoint area of Brooklyn when lighting construction scaffolding suddenly was torn loose from its housing by high winds and fell 15 feet, slamming the 4 foot 11 inch actress to the pavement.
According to eyewitnesses, Chenoweth began having a seizure which lasted nearly a minute and she lost consciousness.
A FDNY ambulance put her on a stretcher and fitted her with a neck brace before rushing the blonde beauty across the East River to Bellevue Hospital in midtown Manhattan. She is reportedly in stable condition.
Before the near deadly accident, Kristen had tweeted, “Where is a 7/11 when i need one?” What she needed was 911 less than an hour later.
Costar Josh Charles and other actors visited the plucky Kristen at the hospital and she is said to be responding well to treatment.
Feel better, Kristen!
UPDATED: Kristen has been released from the hospital.
