Brian Harvey "crushed under his own car"

Brian Harvey

Former East 17 star Brian Harvey is critically ill in hospital after being run over by his own car, police have said.

The 30-year-old was crushed when he fell from his Mercedes convertible outside his home in Walthamstow, east London.

A police spokesman said: "A man, in his early 30s, was taken by the ambulance service to an east London hospital suffering from multiple injuries.

"His condition is still described as critical.

"The man was alone in the car at the time. No other drivers were involved."

Police are investigating the exact cause of the incident which follows two alleged suicide attempts by the I'm a Celebrity star.

The singer, who has been diagnosed with clinical depression, was recently taken to hospital after his second reported overdose of sleeping tablets.

Harvey first rose to fame as a member of 90s band East 17, but was later kicked out of the band after he admitted taking drugs.

He clearly is just looking for attention. Anyone that tries killing themselves 3 times and fails at every attempt is looking for help. Apparently he's depressed because his elderly Nan died. That's a pretty stupid thing to make you want to kill yourself.

I thought the newspapers yesterday said he died from being crushed by that car? Then again... It was Telegraaf who said that, that newspaper really ain't shit.

this just in..  from http://www.nme.com/news/112537.htm

"The bizarre incident that led to EAST 17 singer BRIAN HARVEY being hospitalised in LONDON was a “freak accident”, his manager has said, not a suicide attempt."

He said: "It looks as if Brian was reversing down the road with his door open, looking out to see where he was going, and the door hit a parked car which sent his car out of control…somehow he was thrown from the vehicle and crushed.”

The manager revealed that Harvey’s injuries include a broken leg and six breaks to the pelvis.

He added: “His abdominal area was pushed very high into his chest, they had to drain his lungs yesterday and there was also damage to his ribs… people have speculated it might be a suicide attempt but I don't think you could plan this if you tried. There are easier ways to kill yourself. It was just a freak accident and a piece of seriously bad luck."

A Scotland Yard spokesperson said that police were called to the scene by the London Ambulance Service at 1.53am on Tuesday (May 31). There were no other passengers in Harvey’s vehicle, which ended up in a collision with another car.

The spokesman said: “The circumstances of the collision are being investigated but at this early stage we believe the man may have fallen from the driver's side of the Mercedes convertible while reversing from an access road into the street.”

He added: “He was alone in the car at the time and no other driver was involved."

Very sad to hear. I kinda like this guy. His solo album was nice in its category, had some nice songs.
