Police Report Confirms Wilson Attempted Suicide


Police Report Confirms Wilson Attempted Suicide

Posted by thegodthatfailedbn 861 days ago
Los Angeles police have confirmed actor Owen Wilson did try to kill himself at his Californian home on Sunday. The 38-year-old Wedding Crashers star was taken by ambulance from his Santa Monica property to the emergency room at the nearby St. John's Hospital at midday on Sunday. Reports immediately began circulating that Wilson had cut his wrists and taken pills in an attempt to end his life. He was reportedly found found by older brother Andrew, who called the authorities. And now the Santa Monica Police Department's Calls For Service report - obtained by U.S. news show Extra - lists the reason for the emergency 911 call to Wilson's address as an "attempted suicide." The phone call was received by authorities at 12:08pm on Sunday and "cleared" nearly five hours later at 5:07pm. Wilson made no mention of the controversy in a statement he released on Monday: "I respectfully ask that the media allow me to receive care and heal in private during this difficult time." The actor's family was seen at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he was reportedly transferred to, on Sunday night. A hospital spokesman reported Wilson to be in a "good condition" on Monday.

    That sucks, this guy is pretty good looking and is at the top of his career. It just show us that money dosen't always bring happiness and fix problems, I feel for him and hopes he never goes through with it if he ever tries again :-(

    it is amazing how a great actor and with so much fame can go through such a tragedy of atempting suicide, wich tells yoiu that with all the money he has, he is still unhappy in his life...money does not buy everything, such as love and happiness...I really like him and happy that he didn't die, so hopefully he doesn't try it again for God's sake....

  • This shows that the Media gets into the celebrets / peoples private life too much. Highest of examples... Princess Diana. Had the media let her be. and not follow in such high speeds. That wouldn't of cause the driver to lose control. Even with having some liquir in his system. Besides, if the driver was that druck the Hotel would of not allowed him to drive. and would of been just as reponisble.

    I love his movies. most of them anyway..

    If any representatives of Owen Wilson's reads this... I'm sure I'm speaking as like everyone else. We wish him well... from all his fans.

  • does anyone realize he was in character, planning to play a guy who botched a suicide attempt. and maybe he took it too far. the character he was gonna play was along the same lines as steve carrels character in little miss sunshine, with bandaged wrists and all. maybe hes a method actor who really gets into his roles and feels embarrased about the whole thing.

  • I feel bad for him because I know what it is like to be famous, it has a lot of pressure I must say and yet many people may not know it because we as citizens may think that being famous is cool just like not having been experienced with a violent attack before. I hope Owen Wilson gets better and hope that he knows how to cope or to help himself out after this tragedy.

  • Allot of famous people cannot handle the "limelight". He is feeling pressure and isolation because he is an actor. I feel sorry for him, truly. I hope he gets better and gets the mental health help he needs.

Not to sound mean but if thats what it takes for people to realise that life doesnt always go to plan and trying to kill yourself isnt the best way to deal with it then i think its a positive thing that he did it. i dont wish death on any1 so im not sayoin do it, but i am sayin people think, life may be short but its the longest thing youll eva do!! so dont make decisions that are goin to shorten your stay on earth!! oh and remember, have no regrets coz everything you hav done is exactly wat u wanted to do wen u did it!!

  • Maybe I don't get it because I have never really been that depressed, but how can anyone want to end their life??!! and over what??!! what is so drastic that it requires anyone to put a bullet in their head or a blade to their wrists??!! I do wish Owen the best in his recovery and I hope he learns to be a stronger person so he doesn't stoop so low in the future to try this act again!!!

  • My prayers are with Owen Wilson and his family. Suicide attempts are a cry for help and I hope he gets the proper help and Dx. He has a long road ahead to get well, he must summit to GOD and love himself.

    To the media and others who aren't respecting his wishes to heal in private, get a life!! Instead, read a book about mental / chemical disorders. It might help you save a life instead of destroying one.

    I read a few comments on here about people mentioning his status and finance. Grow up!! At the end of any day no matter what career or whatever amount of money one has, you are a human being first and a child of God. We all have issues and as a society we should help one another instead of destroying.

    Try putting yourself in someones elses shoes before you judge them. We as humans can never judge since no one is perfect....

    I have been a widow for almost 5 months and a suicide survivor. My husband is at peace and isn't going to hell. The hell was in his mind for 36 years.

  • The people who had negative things to say about Owen Wilson should be ashamed of themselves. Being a nurse in an ICU, I've seen a lot of bad things. Suicide is nothing to make fun of. Yes, I agree that he does need help and I'm sure he will get some. But he doesn't need people berating him just because he is an actor or has money. He is a human being. I hope he makes a full recovery.

  • Even in a world of money and fame and parties...it must be empty and lonely without real love and trying to find friends who like you for YOU. He strikes me as being someone who would fall hard. Has he ever been in love before? He probably gave his whole heart which was shattered in the breakup. Ahhh...to experience that intense feeling again.

    I hope he rests and heals and comes out to share more of his talent with the world...

    posted by sportsnet 860 days ago
  • Speaking from experience, I'm sure all of your comments about his stupidity are really helping Owen through. As for it being over Kate, you don't know that for sure it was probably a factor but it's never over just one thing; there are a billion things in his life that could have contributed to his actions.
    He could obviously hide his feelings well, he's an amazing actor, yes, but if an ordinary person can hide it for 15 years, what could he do. I hope he gets well & his family can get through this tough time. It won't be an overnight fix, not for Owen or his family. They may not get over it at all... this guy is hurting, and whatever effects that may have contributed to that, may NEVER abate.

Thats right you get to chose, so don't complain about how lucky someone is just because they have more than you, they have worked hard for what they do have! My prayers are with you Owen, God chose for us to live and he believes in you. I hope that you can find what you are looking for and that you find the comfort you need to help heal your soul.

    For all who are suffering through depression - not just celebrities - there is help. Don't give up. Someone out there does love you. Life IS worth living, and suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
