Amanda Bynes Placed In Psychiatric Hospital After She Was Found Roaming Streets Naked
According to TMZ, the actress who has bipolar disorder, flagged down a car on Monday, March 20, 2023 without any clothes on her person and told the driver she was coming down from a psychiatric episode.
Amanda Bynes, 36, then called 911 on herself and was taken to a nearby police station, where a mental health expert determined she needed to be placed on a 5150 hold, according to the outlet.
A 5150 hold is a kind of involuntary hold, in which a person may be held for up to 72 hours. A hold can also be extended depending on the case.
Sources also told TMZ that Bynes did not appear hurt during the ordeal, and that she currently remains hospitalized.
Bynes’ attorney did not immediately return a request for comment, but her ex-fiancé Paul Michael tells Page Six exclusively that the Nickelodeon alum has allegedly been “off her meds.”
