Emergency dispatch audio captured the frantic efforts to save the life of actor Robert Kelker-Kelly before his death at age 62. The recordings reveal that responding officers were initially unable to remove the actor from his bed.
“Caller is unable to remove patient from bed,” one officer stated in the audio obtained by Page Six. Additional units were dispatched to the scene, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was in progress upon their arrival.
Another responding officer reported that the patient was a “62-year-old male” who was “not conscious” and “not breathing.” An automated voice indicated a “cardiac arrest” at Kelker-Kelly’s address.
Page Six confirmed the actor's death on Monday, October 3. First responders arrived at his Missouri home on Saturday around 8:16 p.m. following a call for an adult male patient in cardiac arrest. Paramedics and first responders administered advanced life-saving protocols.
“Unfortunately the patient was pronounced deceased on scene,” Kyle Gaines, Division Chief and Public Information Officer for the St. Charles County Ambulance District (SSCAD), told Page Six. The St. Peters Police Department confirmed to TMZ that CPR was underway when they arrived, but life-saving measures were ultimately unsuccessful.
