A story posted on the New York Post’s Page Six this morning claims that Howard Stern funnyman Artie Lange attempted to commit suicide over the weekend. He apparently stabbed himself nine times. The story reads: “Troubled comic Artie Lange landed in the hospital after stabbing himself nine times in an apparent suicide attempt, sources told The Post. Lange’s frantic mom called 911 Saturday morning after she entered his Hoboken apartment and found the bloodied funnyman, a law-enforcement source said. Lange sustained six “hesitation wounds” and three deep plunges. A source close to Lange’s management team confirmed that the Howard Stern sidekick stabbed himself, adding that his mother had come to visit him that day to drop off food. Surgeons managed to save Lange despite heavy bleeding.” Stern mentioned the report this morning but decided not to read it on the air. “I’m sorry. I just feel sick about this, I don’t know what to do,” Stern said. Artie Lange has been absent from the show for the past several weeks. If he survives this, let’s hope Artie gets the help he needs…and soon!
