Actor Corey Feldman has claimed he was stabbed in Los Angeles recently with a syringe, and after driving himself to the hospital to get checked, he reached out to his Twitter followers for prayers.
Feldman revealed that he was inside his car when three Hispanic men attacked and distracted his security. One man managed to stab him with a sharp object but the attackers quickly left the scene.
"I'm in the hospital! I was attacked 2nite! A man opened my car door & stabbed me w/something! Please say prayers 4 us!" the actor posted and shared photos on Twitter.
The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed that Feldman has been cleared from the hospital. Authorities, however, clarified that the actor did not incur any injury from the attack but the investigations continue.
Feldman, however, is standing by his claim that he was stabbed with a needle. His lawyer, Perry Wander, confirmed that the police took DNA and fingerprint samples on scene for testing to hopefully corroborate Feldman's report.
In another statement on Twitter, the actor implied that the incident was an attempt on his life by the Hollywood "wolfpack" who wants to silence him for exposing pedophiles in the industry. In previous months, Feldman has been granting interviews to share his experience as an abused child actor.
In some of these interviews, Feldman also expressed that he's putting his life on the line for coming out since he also witnessed the abuse other child actors suffered. He revealed that his best friend and fellow child actor Corey Haim, who died in 2010, was a victim of rape at 11 years old.
Feldman has been advocating against child abuse in Hollywood for years. The actor has been trying to get a documentary on the subject filmed for years, but the project has yet to get off the ground due to lack of funding and support.
