Anne Heche, the Emmy-winning actor whose film roles include 1998′s “Six Days Seven Nights” and 1997′s “Donnie Brasco,” sustained severe injuries Friday when her car crashed into a Los Angeles home.
The vehicle, which officials confirmed is registered to Heche, ran into a two-story home in the Mar Vista neighborhood on the city’s west side and erupted in “heavy fire,” the Los Angeles Fire Department said.
Fifty-nine firefighters responded to the scene and extinguished the flames after an hour, the fire department officials said.
Officials didn’t confirm Heche was the driver, though footage published by TMZ reportedly shows Heche’s Mini Cooper zooming down a residential street.
Witnesses said the actor, who appeared to initially crash into an apartment complex garage, left that site and sped away again, TMZ reports said.
Another clip shows first responders wheeling a stretcher carrying a fully covered body into an ambulance, but then a woman pushes herself out of the bag and begins to sit up.
TMZ also published a photo of Heche inside the car along with a red-capped bottle in her cupholder.
Sources told TMZ that Heche’s condition prevented doctors from determining if she was under the influence of alcohol while driving the Mini Cooper.
HuffPost has reached out to Heche’s representative for comment.
