ROCHESTER - Comedian Gallagher has been rushed to a hospital after collapsing during a performance in Minnesota.

Todd Powers, owner of Whiskey Bone's Roadhouse in Rochester, said the 64-year-old Gallagher collapsed in the middle of a show Thursday night. It's unclear why he collapsed or what his condition is.

Witness Chris Blade told the Rochester Post-Bulletin that Gallagher had complained of pain in his left arm and shortness of breath. Blade said Gallagher was responsive when emergency crews were taking him out of the club.
