Wake-up Calls: Owen Wilson Reportedly Hospitalized For Suicide Attempt
In a story we'll file under Ways the World's Most Beloved, Impish Movie Stars Should Never Opt to Spend a Quiet Sunday Afternoon, Owen Wilson was rushed to Saint John's Health Center in Santa Monica today, for what Star magazine reports was a failed suicide attempt:

Wilson was transported to St. John's hospital in Santa Monica , Calif. on Sunday, August 26, by ambulance. Sources tell the ENQUIRER and Star that he sliced his left wrists and took an indeterminate amount of pills.
He was discovered by a family member who summoned help.

Police and an ambulance responded to a 911 call from Owen's house around noon on Sunday.

His wrist was sutured and bandaged at the hospital. [...]

Owen was brought in to St. John's in very serious condition. Police were on the scene immediately as was a criminal defense attorney, believed to be working for Wilson. Some of Owen's family was with him.



With only American Media Inc.'s tabloid siblings to rely on for details right now, we'll follow up on this still-developing story tomorrow, when, we imagine, we'll have a more fully depressing picture of exactly what went down. Until then, try to enjoy the last vestiges of your weekend.
