Anne Heche's blood test revealed narcotics in her system: LAPD
It's believed Anne Heche was under the influence when she crashed her car into a home in Los Angeles last Friday. A spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department confirms to Yahoo Entertainment that Heche, 53, is being investigated for a felony DUI traffic collision. Blood draw results showed the presence of narcotics; however additional testing is required to rule out what was given to her medically.
TMZ quotes law enforcement sources as claiming cocaine was one of the substances found, as well as fentanyl. (Fentanyl is sometimes used for pain management in the hospital.) The Los Angeles Times reports Heche was under the influence of cocaine during the crash. When asked if either of those drugs were the specific narcotics found, the LAPD spokesperson tells Yahoo it's "unknown at this time" and more testing will be performed.
For a traffic collision to be a felony, that means the driver was impaired and/or injured others. Lynne Mishele, the woman whose home was destroyed when it went up in flames in the crash, was hit by some debris and had smoke-related injuries, Fox News Digital reports.
"This case is still an active and ongoing investigation and is currently in the process of gathering additional evidence; to include final toxicology results, and medical records from both parties involved. It is the intent of the investigating Detectives to present this case to the appropriate prosecuting office — the Los Angeles County District Attorney or the Los Angeles City Attorney's office — once all pertinent evidence has been gathered," the LAPD said in a statement on Thursday afternoon. "As of this press release there is no definite direction of which prosecutorial office will be presented with this case until all appropriate and necessary evidence has been gathered accordingly."

Heche was rushed to the hospital on Aug. 5 in critical condition after she was severely burned in the fiery incident. Despite reports over the weekend that she was stable, a rep for the Six Days Seven Nights star said on Monday her condition had not improved.
