'Seinfield' star Wayne Knight falls prey to online death hoax

Wayne Night, who played 'Newman' on the 90's hit show 'Seinfield', became a victim of a death hoax recently.

According to Us Magazine, a false report spread on various fake websites, which included TMZ Today, a fake Us Weekly site, and EBuzzd on Sunday detailing that the 58-year-old actor suffered a traumatic hit in a car crash on Saturday night, and died on the scene.

But the actor who was very much alive, quickly took to Twitter and clarified his fans of the rumour in a joking manner saying, some might be glad to hear this, others strangely disappointed, but he's alive and well, and glad to be breathing.
