Comedian suffers stroke

Comedian Patrice O'Neal, 41, who was the target of barbs concerning his weight during the "Comedy Central Roast of Charlie Sheen" on Sept. 19, has suffered a serious stroke. His friend and fellow comic Jim Norton revealed Wednesday on the "Opie and Anthony" radio show that it occurred last week. "We don't know how he is. We don't know how he's going to be," Norton said. The "Opie and Anthony" Facebook page released a statement saying, "An email has been set up for fans to send him well wishes (loveforpatrice@gmail.com)."
