Seinfeld actor Daniel von Bargen, who’s best known for playing George Costanza’s boss Mr. Kruger in the sitcom, is in critical condition after a failed suicide attempt earlier this week, TMZ reports.
The 61-year-old was in his Cincinnati apartment Monday morning when he shot himself in the head and then called for help. According to audio of the 911 tape posted on the gossip site, he told the operator, “I’ve shot myself in the head and I need help.”
The gunshot to the temple was not an accident. Von Bargen, who is a diabetic, recently learned some bad news. “I was supposed to go to the hospital and I didn’t want to. So I shot myself… They were supposed to amputate at least a few toes.”
Von Bargen was transported to a nearby hospital.
The veteran actor also recurred as Commandant Edwin Spangler on Malcolm in the Middle. On the big screen, he’s appeared in O Brother, Where Art Thou?, The Faculty and Super Troopers.
Time for some T-boing
