London, Oct 9 (IANS) Former “Baywatch” star David Hasselhoff’s drinking habit is taking its toll - he wet his hotel bed and was so uncontrollable that he had to be locked in the basement before an ambulance arrived to take him to hospital.
Thesun.co.uk reports that he also bruised his forehead and a doctor was called in by his assistant Joe Townley. The 57-year-old had been drinking for days in his London hotel and the staff were afraid that the actor was out of control.

Hotel guest Maria Weston who saw Haselhoff at the bar said: “He was abusing all the staff, shouting at everyone. We were shocked - you’d think he was just some drunk, not a big star.”

Added a source: “David is very hard to handle when he drinks, often very emotional and aggressive. On this occasion he became so drunk, he wet his hotel bed - ruining two mattresses - and was becoming a real pain for staff.

“His assistant Joe Townley was so concerned he called out a doctor. David was furious and lashed out at him - but mistakenly hit the doctor. They decided they had no option but to lock him in the basement until an ambulance arrived.”

Last month, Hasselhoff was taken to the hospital after his daughter sounded an alarm that he had been drinking too much.
