Amanda Bynes was reportedly placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold Sunday after allegedly roaming downtown Los Angeles naked and alone.
An eyewitness told TMZ on Monday that the 36-year-old “Amanda Show” actress allegedly waved down a car to tell the driver that she was coming down from a psychotic episode.
The nude actress herself called 911, the source claimed.
The outlet reports that Bynes was taken to a nearby police station, where a mental health team determined she needed to be placed on a 5150 psych hold.
Bynes did not appear to be injured, TMZ reported.
The Post has contacted Bynes’ reps, as well as LA police for comment.
The news comes after Bynes missed a previously confirmed appearance at ’90s Con over the weekend due to an undisclosed illness.
The Nickelodeon child star was set to reunite with her “All That” castmates Kel Mitchell, Danny Tamberelli, Lori Beth Denberg and Kenan Thompson.
“I’ve just been praying for her,” Mitchell told Entertainment Tonight at the convention.
“It’s awesome to see she’s doing better. Which is great. We’re just continuing to pray for her on her journey, and it’s answered prayers that she’s doing a lot better,” he added.
During Saturday’s “All That” panel, Mitchell asked the audience to “send a prayer” to Bynes to help her “feel better.”
Bynes announced a hiatus from acting in 2010 amid rumors of substance abuse. She suffered a very public breakdown and as a result was put under a conservatorship in August 2013, which ended last year.
She enrolled at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in 2014 and graduated in 2019, and entered cosmetology school last year to become a licensed manicurist.
