David Lee Roth Saved By Ontario Cops

Two coppers in Oakland, Ontario, pulled over a speeder last month in what they thought was a routine traffic stop. As it turns out, it was anything from routine, the person they pulled over was David Lee Roth and he was having an anaphylactic reaction:

Roth has an allergy to nuts and was suffering a severe reaction after coming into contact with a contaminated substance.

The officers called an ambulance and kept Roth calm until paramedics arrived on the scene, according to CTV.ca.

Constable Chris Thompson admits he didn't realize that he was dealing with a famous rock star when he attended to the crisis.

He says, "At the time I wasn't star struck, I was just trying to help him. The guy stuck out like a sore thumb. He was wearing a little silk scarf and flashy clothing - it's not something you see in Oakland too often."

Police can't confirm if Roth had any nuts in his mouth at the time of the incident, but it's pretty safe to assume that he's had his fair share of them bounce off his chin in his lifetime.
