A representative said the 66-year-old actor is recovering after paramedics treated and hospitalized him for an unconfirmed medical condition.
- Golden Globe-winning actor Ving Rhames collapsed at the Granville restaurant in North Hollywood, Calif., on Wednesday afternoon while dining with family. Paramedics responded and transported the 66-year-old to a hospital for medical evaluation.
