He added: “It’s a weird accident, that’s all I can say. There was absolutely no struggle, just a freak accident.”
TMZ claimed that Randy Meisner, 69, was taken to the hospital at 4:45 a.m. on Monday morning and was “acting in an altered state.”
According to the New York Daily News, no arrests were made and a press release will be issued on Monday afternoon by police.
Meisner helped form the Eagles in September 1971, and usually played the bass and added backing vocals. He played guitar on Desperado, On the Border, and Hotel California. He also wrote or co-wrote songs on the group’s first five albums, including the hit Take It to the Limit. Meisner formally quit the band in September of 1977 and launched a solo career.
