Police were called to Amanda Bynes' Midtown Manhattan apartment building last night after the actress reportedly threw a marijuana bong from her apartment window. She spent the night at Central booking and will undergo a psychiatric evaluation as well. The 27-year-old who has been showing signs of a meltdown in recent months was arrested on charges of reckless endangerment, tampering with evidence, and criminal possession of marijuana. Amanda was later taken to Roosevelt Hospital for a psychiatric evaluation. At this time it is not clear if she has sought legal council from a lawyer.
The actress-turned-infamous-Twitter-user was reportedly smoking pot in her apartment building's lobby, causing the doorman to call police. She was also reportedly showing signs of disturbing behavior and talking to herself according to a source.
When the police arrived, they saw a heavy amount of smoke and a marijuana bong. Amanda then threw the paraphernalia out of her apartment window in front of the responding officers. Bynes was arrested and taken to central booking. Check out this photo posted on Twitter by WNBC-TV producer Simon Prokupecz:
