A spokeswoman for Los Robles Hospital in Thousand Oaks, Calif. confirms to KNBC TV’s Bev White that Heather Locklear was admitted and will stay overnight. She was conscious and stable and resting comfortably, the spokeswoman said.

Original story

Actress Heather Locklear was taken to the hospital on Thursday afternoon after a 911 call was placed from her home earlier in the day.

"Emergency response personnel responded to a medical emergency call at Ms. Locklear's residence," Ventura County Sheriff's Capt. Mike Aranda told PEOPLE. "Once they arrived, it was determined that Ms. Locklear needed to be transported to the hospital for further medical attention."

Aranda told NBC News that when deputies arrived, paramedics were already administering aid to the actress.

A spokesperson for the sheriff's department told Us Weekly that she had been transported to Los Robles Hospital.

According to TMZ, it was the actress' sister who made the call shortly after 2 p.m. PT. The website also reports that law enforcement sources said Locklear, 50, had mixed alcohol with prescription drugs.

A source told Radar Onlinethat the "Melrose Place" star was "distraught over her relationship with Jack (Wagner), it is on and off and it has upset her lately." Locklear and her "Melrose" co-star Wagner ended their engagement in November, saying it was the best thing for their children.

I hope she gets the help she needs too.

My heart goes out to Ava to have to see one of her parents deal with this again.

I totally agree. On the one hand I want to slap H and tell her to snap out of it and be there for her daughter. On the other hand, if she is really suffering from sort of depression, I'd feel bad for the "snap out of it" comment. Depression is nothing to fool with, no matter who you are.

I hope Ava has a strong support system with [the rest of] her family and friends.

Why can't someone get Heather the help she needs? Taking meds with booze is seriously bad stuff, and sounds like a sucidie attempt. Even though her parents and her publicity person are saying it wasn't. I hope Ava is doing okay at least her dad seems to be in a good place now. I hope she does have a great support system.
