NEW YORK — Harvey Weinstein was rushed on Monday from Rikers Island, where he is being held, to Bellevue Hospital for emergency heart surgery after experiencing chest pains, sources told ABC News.
The emergency comes as Weinstein is due in court this week in New York, where prosecutors had been presenting evidence to a grand jury as they work to secure a new indictment against Weinstein on sex crimes charges.
Weinstein has denied any wrongdoing and has said his sexual encounters with women were consensual.
