Tom Sizemore, an American actor known for his roles in Saving Private Ryan and Black Hawk Down, has been admitted to hospital in Los Angeles after suffering a brain aneurysm early on Saturday morning and is in a critical condition, his manager said.
“He is in the hospital. His family is aware of the situation and are hoping for the best. It is too early to know about [a] recovery situation as he is in critical condition under observation,” the actor's manager Charles Lago told Fox News.
Sizemore, 61, whose film and television career has spanned decades, is best known for his roles as the battle-hardened sergeant at Tom Hanks's side in 1998’s Saving Private Ryan, and as commander of an Army Ranger battalion in 2001’s Black Hawk Down. He was nominated for a Golden Globe Award in 2000 for his role in Witness Protection.
Sizemore has struggled with drug addiction for nearly as long as his career and has had several run-ins with law enforcement. A 2007 documentary series, Shooting Sizemore, chronicled his efforts to reclaim his life and career after being convicted of assaulting his ex-girlfriend and entering rehab. The actor has also been arrested for driving under the influence and drug possession several times in recent years.
In 2018, a then 26-year-old actor filed a lawsuit against Sizemore, claiming he abused her when she was 11 during production on the 2005 film Born Killers. He denied the allegation and the suit was later dismissed.
Sizemore's career first began with Oliver Stone's 1989 film Born on the Fourth of July. He would later star in 1991's Point Break, and Quentin Tarantino’s True Romance (1993) and Natural Born Killers (1994).
For his role in the 1993 fantasy-comedy film Heart and Souls, he was nominated for the Saturn award for Best Supporting Actor.

How has net migration to UK changed?
The figure was broadly flat immediately before the Covid-19 pandemic, standing at 216,000 in the year to June 2018 and 224,000 in the year to June 2019.
It then dropped to an estimated 111,000 in the year to June 2020 when restrictions introduced during the pandemic limited travel and movement.
The total rose to 254,000 in the year to June 2021, followed by steep jumps to 634,000 in the year to June 2022 and 906,000 in the year to June 2023.
The latest available figure of 728,000 for the 12 months to June 2024 suggests levels are starting to decrease.

One in nine do not have enough to eat
Created in 1961, the World Food Programme is pledged to fight hunger worldwide as well as providing emergency food assistance in a crisis.
One of the organisation’s goals is the Zero Hunger Pledge, adopted by the international community in 2015 as one of the 17 Sustainable Goals for Sustainable Development, to end world hunger by 2030.
The WFP, a branch of the United Nations, is funded by voluntary donations from governments, businesses and private donations.
Almost two thirds of its operations currently take place in conflict zones, where it is calculated that people are more than three times likely to suffer from malnutrition than in peaceful countries.
It is currently estimated that one in nine people globally do not have enough to eat.
On any one day, the WFP estimates that it has 5,000 lorries, 20 ships and 70 aircraft on the move.
Outside emergencies, the WFP provides school meals to up to 25 million children in 63 countries, while working with communities to improve nutrition. Where possible, it buys supplies from developing countries to cut down transport cost and boost local economies.
