Mischa Barton's Medical Issue

Mischa Barton has entered Cedars-Sinai Medical Center psych ward. Barton has reportedly been kept in hospital under a "psychiatric hold", according to reports. Mischa, 23, was admitted to the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles where it is claimed, by Access Hollywood, that she was placed under an involuntary hold.

Los Angeles police were called to Mischa's home to assist her with a “medical issue” on Tuesday afternoon. Access Hollywood reported then that police had to respond to a non-911 call about 3pm at the O.C. star's West Hollywood apartment. A patrol car was the first on the scene, and police officers reportedly had to escort the 23-year-old actress from her home to an unknown location.

Mischa Barton was also charged for driving while under the influence of alcohol and possession of marijuana in late December. Then, in April 2008, Barton was sentenced by an LA court judge to 36 months’ probation, told to attend alcohol education classes and had to pay a pretty big fine.
