A security guard gave him a bottle of water, but soon after he collapsed on stage. D.L. passed out and was taken to a hospital. Luckily, D.L.’s manager caught him so he did not suffer a bad fall. He was put on a stretcher and went to the hospital via ambulance. He stayed overnight at the hospital to receive testing.
