Bank moves to foreclose on Kiss guiltarist

YORKTOWN, N.Y. (AP) — One of the founding members of the rock band Kiss is in danger of losing a New York home to foreclosure.

The Journal News newspaper reports (http://lohud.us/UV6Qqe ) that a bank initiated foreclosure proceedings on Feb. 15 on a Yorktown property owned by former Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley.

The three-bedroom house is in a wooded area off the Taconic State Parkway north of New York City.

U.S. Bank National Association said in a court filing that Frehley stopped paying his mortgage in 2011. The Yorktown tax receiver's office also lists liens for thousands of dollars in unpaid taxes on the house.

An assistant to Frehley didn't immediately respond to an email

Frehley was with Kiss in its 1970s heyday, performing in heavy makeup as a character known as the "Spaceman."
