Gene Simmons won’t be able to rock and roll all night, at least for a little while.
The Kiss legend was reportedly hospitalized following a car crash in Malibu, California, on Tuesday, Oct. 7, according to NBC4 Los Angeles.
Although Simmons, 76, is now said to be “recovering at home” following the scary incident, the “Beth” rocker had either passed out or fainted while behind the wheel of his SUV and collided with a parked car on the Pacific Coast Highway, per the outlet.
A spokesperson for the Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station, meanwhile, told People that there was an accident matching the description of the Kiss bassist’s crash. However, they did not identify the driver involved.
The Lost Hills spokesperson added that the incident happened in the 25000 block of the PCH shortly before 1 p.m. Tuesday, and it “involved a vehicle that struck a parked vehicle.”
The driver was then transported to the hospital by the Los Angeles County Fire Department for further treatment, the spokesperson shared.
NBC4 later identified the driver as Simmons and reported that his SUV “careened across several lanes of traffic” before colliding with the parked car.
The “God of Thunder” singer’s wife, Shannon Simmons, told the outlet that her husband is currently recovering at home and that doctors recently changed his medication.
The Post has reached out to Simmons’ rep for comment.
