Actor Daniel von Bargen, who played George Costanza’s boss Mr. Kruger on “Seinfeld,” is fighting for his life after surviving a self-inflicted gunshot to the head, according to a report.
“I’ve shot myself in the head . . . and I need help,” von Bargen says in a chilling 911 call after what is believed to have been a suicide attempt at his apartment in Cincinnati, TMZ reported.
Bargen, 61, tells the 911 operator, “I was supposed to go to the hospital and I didn’t want to,” adding fragmented details about doctors planning to “amputate at least a few toes” due to his diabetes.
