Norris, known for starring in the long-running TV series “Walker, Texas Ranger,” had been hospitalized in Hawaii a day before, TMZ reported.

His family expressed gratitude for the prayers and support that they said he received following his hospitalization.

Only a week ago, Norris shared a video of himself boxing with someone while celebrating his birthday and health.

“I don’t age. I level up,” he said in the video.
