In a 911 call posted on TMZ.com, Gary Coleman’s wife Shannon Price told a dispatcher that Coleman fell and hit his head while at his Utah home.
“He just got home, I heard his head bang… I went downstairs… there’s blood everywhere,” she told the dispatcher.

During the 911 call, Price told the dispatcher she was too sick to drive to drive him to the hospital because she had a fever. She said that at one point Coleman was frothing at the mouth and she didn’t know if he’d had a seizure.
Moments later she said Coleman was sitting and then standing. “Sit down Gary!” she can be heard yelling. “He’s got blood all over the back of his head… I’m gagging. I’ve got blood on myself. I can’t deal,” she said when the dispatcher insisted that she give Coleman a towel to staunch the bleeding. “I can’t do anything for him,” she said.
During the call, which sounds fishy to me, Price can be heard ordering her dogs away from Coleman.
Coleman died on Friday (May 28) from an intracranial hemorrhage after falling at home. Coleman and Price were in the process of getting a divorce at the time of his death.
