Artem Chigvintsev, a professional dancer on Dancing with the Stars, was at the center of a swift emergency response effort this past Wednesday that ended up being unnecessary.
A 911 call from Chigvintsev’s home in the San Fernando Valley led to the rapid deployment of police and paramedic teams to his residence. Upon their arrival, however, it became apparent that the situation was much less serious than it originally seemed.
The precise reasons behind the initiating call remain unclear, but insiders close to Chigvintsev confirm that he was not in any danger and there was no need for medical intervention. The emergency units were promptly dismissed and the incident was classified as a false alarm.
Since joining Dancing with the Stars in 2014, Chigvintsev has generally maintained a relatively low profile. He has chosen not to make any public statements concerning this recent scare, and details about what triggered the 911 call are still vague.
While the false alert has sparked some curiosity and concern, it’s reassuring to know that Chigvintsev was not harmed and remains in good health.
