Two University of Maryland basketball players charged in the cocaine-induced death of former teammate Len Bias told a grand jury that Bias suffered three seizures before paramedics were called, a TV station in Washington reported.

WUSA-TV quoted unnamed sources as saying that Terry Long and David Gregg also told the grand jury that Brian Tribble, charged with supplying Bias with the drugs that killed the player in June, brought “scoops” of cocaine into the dormitory suite where Bias collapsed.

Long and Gregg said they warned Bias not to take too much cocaine but that Bias replied, “I’m a horse, I can take it,” the Washington station reported.
