Actor Owen Wilson was rushed to hospital today after allegedly attempting suicide.
Both Star magazine and the National Enquirer report that the 38-year-old actor was taken to St. John's hospital in Santa Monica, California by ambulance after paramedics and police responded to a 911 call from his home this afternoon.
According to reports, Wilson was found at his home by his brother Andrew after he had slashed his wrists and taken nearly a whole bottle of pills. Santa Monica Police refused to provide details but confirmed that a person was transported to hospital for treatment. Owen is said to be in stable condition but has been moved to another undisclosed hospital. Both his brothers, Andrew and Luke, are with him.
The star is currently filming Tropic Thunder in Hawaii with Ben Stiller and has two more films lined up. His movies include You, Me and Dupree and Starsky and Hutch. Wilson's relationship with Kate Hudson ended earlier this year.
