Harvey Weinstein is on his way to Rikers Island. He is being transferred to the jail following a 10-day stay at Bellevue Hospital.
Weinstein had a heart procedure at Bellevue on Wednesday to remove a blockage and is now in good enough health to be transferred to jail. He will be held at the North Infirmary Command, the jail’s medical facility.
Officials say the procedure was a success and that he will be carefully watched during his stay at the infirmary. He was initially expected to go to Rikers right away but was diverted to the hospital after complaining of chest pains and high blood pressure.
