Rock legend Bo Diddley suffered a heart attack last week following a medical check up at a Florida medical center. He is reported to be in stable condition in a cardiac care center at a Florida hospital following surgery.
Diddley, 78, suffered a stroke in May and was undergoing a medical check up at the North Florida Regional Medical Center in Gainesville this past Friday when he began feeling ill. He was taken to the emergency room where he suffered a heart attack.
