 Mindy McCready: Hospitalized after suicide attempt
American country music singer Mindy McCready has attempted suicide. She has been hospitalized in Nashville, Tennessee after the incident.
The 33 year old Mindy McCready, who has already spent time in rehab and jail earlier this year, reportedly took several pills and cut her wrists on late Tuesday evening, while staying at the home of her brother, Timothy McCready. She was in a rehab center in July after a nervous breakdown, three months after revealing that she'd had an affair with baseball player Roger Clemens.
Timothy McCready told police that his sister was "very intoxicated" after a night out.
According to a report, Mindy McCready has called her mother earlier in the evening, after which their mom prompted Timothy to check on his sister. When he did, McCready told him she didn't know what the concern was, but later she apparently called her assistant and told him she needed him to come over, that "she has done something bad".
A hospital spokeswoman said that Mindy McCready is in stable condition. McCready's attorney Lee Ofman said he did not have details about the situation. |
