Just in- An update on the Seinfeld actor whose failed suicide attempt has left him in critical condition. Daniel von Bargen, who is best known for playing George Costanza’s boss – Mr. Kruger- is now being treated at an Ohio hospital.
The 61-year-old character actor reportedly shot himself in the head in his Cincinnati apartment on Monday, and then called 911, himself for help.
Von Bargen is diabetic, and was reportedly distraught over having to have some toes amputated. When the operator asked him if the shooting was accidental, he said, “No, I was supposed to go to the hospital today and I didn't want to, so I shot myself but it didn't work."
He added that he had previously undergone a leg amputation, and told the operator, quote, “I was tired.”
Von Bargen has starred in dozens of movies including, O Brother where art thou, and Super Troopers. Our thoughts are with him.
