Wow! Ace Frehley died.

In what appears to be an apparent suicide, musician Ace Frehley was pronounced dead as a result of cardiac arrest after consuming more than two-dozen sleeping pills. Complete details are not yet available, as this story is still developing.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ace_Frehley

Sorry no news link yet.

2. The Wiki discussion consensus indicates vandalism
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Ace_Frehley

He's probably still with the living.

And when did Wiki become a god of journalism? Trust half of what you read.

Maybe the OP should read "reported by suspect news source".

5. Nor is it mentioned in any of the KISS usenet groups
If Ace really had killed himself, there'd be a half-dozen new threads in the groups...

11. Agree. I think this would receive at least passing mention by major
news outlets, especially if he committed suicide (those ghouls are always looking for fresh celebrity dead to feed on).

I'm glad it's probably not true. I'm not a big KISS fan, but I like some of their stuff and they've endured.

14. The Wikipedia article has been re-revised and editing by unregistered users disabled.
No mention of a death on that page anymore. Seems to be vandalism or just plain misinformation.
