Ross was reportedly hospitalized after a health scare at his Miami home Thursday morning.

According to a police report published by The Blast, someone at Ross’ home called 911 reporting a person at the residence as “unresponsive,” “breathing heavy” and “slobbing out the mouth.

Citing sources, TMZ reported Friday that Ross has been placed on “something called ECMO,” which is used “to oxygenate his blood outside of his body, before it’s pumped back into his body” and is “essentially a form of life support.”

However, The Fader reports that Ross’ friend Fat Trel has denied the life-support report, posting on Instagram, “”JUS TALKED 2 MY BIG HOMIE…HE GOOD…HE IN DA HOSPITAL BUT HE IS NOT ON ‘LIFE SUPPORT.’”

TheWrap has reached out to Ross’ people foe comment on his condition.
