LOS ANGELES — Actor Anne Heche was under the influence of cocaine during her fiery car crash in Mar Vista last week, a law enforcement source confirmed to the L.A. Times on Thursday.
Officer Annie Hernandez, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department, said a blood test showed the presence of narcotics, but further testing is needed to rule out anything given to Heche at the hospital. Those initial findings could be invalidated if medications at the hospital turned out to be the narcotics.
The latest development comes days after a representative for the LAPD told the L.A. Times that detectives obtained a search warrant for the actor’s blood to see whether she was driving under the influence at the time of the accident.
