NAILIPAT na sa Makati Medical Center si Eddie Garcia pagkatapos dalhin sa Mary Johnston Hospital at sa findings ng mga doktor sa MMC, hindi nagka-heart attack, hindi rin aneurysm at hindi stroke ang dahilan ng pagkakaospital ng beteranong aktor.
Tama ang napanood na lumutang na video na nadapa siya nang mapatid ang paa niya sa ginamit na kable ng production sa taping ng bagong primetime action series ng GMA-7 na Rosang Agimat.
Bumagsak si Eddie, fell face down at nagka-fracture ang kanyang base neck c1 at c2 vertebrae. Inilipat na rin siya sa ICU ng hospital. Sa video, makikitang nilagyan ng yelo ang kanang mata ni Eddie dahil nang madapa ay nadaganan niya ang hawak niyang baril.
Samantala, may official statement ang GMA Network sa aksidenteng nangyari kay Eddie dahil ang unang lumabas na pahayag ay sinasabing galing sa stepson ng aktor.
“The video of Mr. Eddie Garcia faltering in his steps and eventually collapsing has reached GMA. We are seriously reviewing the said video as well as other videos of the same scene which our cameras also took, before we make any conclusions on what really transpired.
“The statement that was released earlier was given to GMA News by Nick, Mr. Eddie Garcia’s stepson. We will wait for the family or their doctor to issue a formal update on his condition.
“Meanwhile, we continue to pray for his quick recovery.”
