KISS founding member and lead guitarist Ace Frehley has died aged 74. In a statement reported in United States media, his family said they were “completely devastated and heartbroken”. “In his last moments, we were fortunate enough to have been able to surround him with loving, caring, peaceful words, thoughts, prayers and intentions as he left this earth,” the statement said. Frehley was a founding member of KISS alongside band members Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley and Peter Criss. The band skyrocketed to success in the 1970s with hits such as Rock and Roll All Nite and I Was Made for Lovin’ You. Frehley left the band in 1982 before rejoining for a reunion tour in 1996. He then stayed with KISS until 2002. During his absence from the rock outfit, he formed his own band, Frehley’s Comet and released solo music. Last month, Frehley had to cancel shows after a fall in his studio. A September 25 post on the guitarist’s official Instagram account said that he had a fall which resulted in a trip to hospital. “He is fine, but against his wishes, his doctor insists that he refrain from travel at this time.” As a result of the incident, a performance had to be cancelled, it said. Last week an update on the same account said: “Due to some ongoing medical issues, Ace has made the difficult decision to cancel the remainder of his 2025 dates”. Sources have told TMZ that Frehley, 74, suffered a brain bleed when he fell in his studio, which forced him to cancel the remaining shows of his tour. TMZ reported that the star has been on a ventilator “for some time,” but his health has not improved.

Police have released images of a woman they hope the public can identify after an alleged serious assault of a baker at a busy Christchurch shopping centre. The incident, which left the father-of-two needing extensive dental repairs after losing teeth, happened at Palms Shopping Centre on September 6. Matt Sherwood, owner of Christchurch baked goods company By The Sugar Daddy, had a stall set up when a woman put her groceries down on his table. Matt Sherwood has had six teeth removed since he was assaulted at a shopping centre on Father's Day Weekend. “I was like ‘Gday, how’s it going’, and she just muttered something and went to open a drink that just started to fizz everywhere,” Sherwood said. But Sherwood said when he went to help the woman, he was confronted within seconds as the woman yelled, “F*** you, man” before leaning over and striking him in the face. “I sort of got concussed for a bit of a minute, and I just turned around and heard something hit the ground,” Sherwood said. “My blood was everywhere. I could feel my tongue and my tooth was just poking out the side. Matt Sherwood, said the incident happened so fat he did not have time to react. Photo / Supplied “It happened so fast, I just couldn’t believe it.” Sherwood said mall security arrived, along with police and ambulance staff, but the woman fled. Sherwood’s wife was in the mall with their two young children and arrived at what he described as a “chaotic scene”. His injuries meant he would need to lose six teeth and have multiple dental consultations – a process which he said has cost him and his family thousands. Police are asking the public to help identify this woman to assist with enquiries into an assault of a Christchurch baker. Photo / Police The images now shared by police show a woman with thick curly ginger hair, wearing a multi-coloured scarf, grey T-shirt, black track pants and bare feet. In her hands she carries a bottle of fizzy drink and other groceries. Police asked anyone who recognised the woman to contact them on 105 quoting file number 250906/5245. Information could also be provided anonymously via Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111. Earlier, Sherwood said he had been left “frustrated” with what he said was a drawn-out almost four-week process for police to find the person responsible. “Every single sort of point we get to, it’s just like it’s forced,” Sherwood said. “I feel like I’ve done something wrong all the time. “Even if it did take seven weeks, I think I would have liked some sort of timeline, and just to keep up with stuff and contact me and tell me the time frame. “It could have been over and done with.” Last week, a police spokesperson said that staff had been in contact with the victim multiple times since the matter, providing updates. “We continue to make progress with our investigation and will continue to update the victim when there is further information to share,” they said.
