The actor William Petersen, famous for his role as Gil Grissom in 'CSI: Crime Scene Investigation', had to be rushed to the hospital during the filming of the hit TV show.

Peterson reported feeling unwell and told the director that he needed a break, before the medical staff decided to call for an ambulance.

The 68-year-old was taken to the hospital as a precaution, with his episode said to have been caused from exhaustion, according to the actor's representative who spoke to TMZ.

Petersen had been working at a very high rate for the last two weeks, which is why stress or exhaustion are considered the reason for his scare.

Thankfully, Petersen has already been discharged from the hospital.
