Anne Heche car crash: Which hospital was she taken to?
Fox11 captured aerial footage of the incident, which revealed the two-bedroom house was spewing out thick smoke. The blazing Mini Cooper was towed out of the building by firefighters using wires, and the rescued driver was later seen lunging forward as paramedics carried her onto a bed and placed her into an ambulance, according to Fox11.
An LAPD spokeswoman indicated that the inquiry into the crash’s cause was still ongoing Friday evening.
Close friend and co-host of Heche’s show Heather Duffy Boylston said she was still receiving details on Friday afternoon and was unable to comment.
Heche, 53, has garnered attention outside of the performing world over the years for her associations with fellow celebrities Ellen DeGeneres and Steve Martin as well as for her open admissions of mental health issues.
