Former Jackass prankster Steve-O angered members of Los Angeles' emergency services by faking a seizure in a coffee shop on Tuesday (11Feb14).
Steve-O - real name Stephen Glover - and three friends pretended they had fallen sick inside a coffee shop in West Hollywood, Los Angeles, prompting horrified onlookers to call 911. Cops, paramedics and firefighters were called to the scene, and they were reportedly outraged to discover it was all a joke.
Los Angles City Fire Department Captain Jamie Moore claims the
stunt could have endangered lives, telling TMZ.com, "The L.A. Fire
Dept. frowns on his action that impacted public safety."
