Bob Barker, longtime host of “The Price Is Right,” tripped and fell Tuesday, resulting in several cuts to his head and a visit to the hospital, authorities said.

Barker was walking outside his home in the 1800 block of Outpost Drive in the Hollywood Hills when he tripped on a sidewalk and tumbled, striking his head on the pavement, Los Angeles police Officer Ricardo Hernandez said.

LAPD officers witnessed the fall, which occurred about 10:30 a.m., and called for an ambulance, Hernandez said. He did not say whether the sidewalk was uneven.

The 91-year-old was treated at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and released.
