John Amos is speaking out about his health following claims he was admitted into an intensive care unit and his life was "hanging by a thread." "To all of my fans, I want you to know that I am doing well," Amos said in a statement provided by his rep to Fox News Digital on Tuesday. "I am not in ICU nor was I ever fighting for my life." Amos' daughter, Shannon, initially said her 83-year-old father had been the victim of "elder abuse" and "financial exploitation" in a lengthy Instagram post shared last week.

Colorado officials confirmed with Fox News Digital that the "Good Times" actor "could be a victim of a crime." "We take allegations of crimes very seriously," the Custer County Sheriff's Office said in a statement obtained by Fox News Digital. "We can confirm that an allegation was made to the Custer County Sheriff's Office that Mr.

Amos could be a victim of a crime." They added, "We are thoroughly investigating that allegation and have consulted with our partners at the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and Department of Human Services.

We have also been in contact with Mr. Amos and his attorney." After Shannon posted that her father was hospitalized with "intense pain" in May — and that the "ICU revealed his life hanging by a thread" — she requested monetary contributions in a crowdsourcing campaign, which would aid in the cost of covering secure housing, medical attention and legal expenses to hold "the perpetrator(s) accountable."  Funds would be directed to the "Amos Care Fund, LLC," according to the GoFundMe.
