AceShowbiz - One of the biggest and most tragic stories in rock music in 2022 was the sudden death of Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins. The 50-year-old drummer was found unresponsive before the band was to perform for their tour stop in Bogota, Colombia.
Shortly before his death, Taylor allegedly suffered chest pain. A Twitter statement from the city's District Secretary of Health noted that the local emergency center received a report about a patient, staying in a hotel north of the city, who had pain in his chest. An ambulance was dispatched to the scene where he was found unresponsive. Attempts to resuscitate him were not successful before he was pronounced dead.
Colombian authorities later claimed that Taylor Hawkins and the Coattail Riders frontman had 10 drugs present in his system, including marijuana, tricyclic antidepressants, benzodiazepines and opioids, at the time of his death.
