Perez Hilton says:
An ambulance left Britney Spears' house around 1:20 A.M this morning. The windows were covered and a police convoy of what seems like DOZENS of cops lead the way.
Britney was in the ambulance and she arrived at UCLA Medical Center around 1:35 A.M.
Following the ambulance were none other than Lynne Spears and Adnan Ghalib - in the same car.
Britney is going to be put under a 5150 psychiatric hold at the hospital for 72 hours. Hopefully her treatment will be extended.
Spears has been under the treatment of a psychiatrist, who was at her home Wednesday night and placed a call to the authorities, which triggered Brit's hospitalization.
Britney had not slept in days and her shrink was concerned for her deteriorating condition.
This is all just so tragic.
Our thoughts are with Britney and her family.
Hopefully the stars will align and she will finally get better now, once and for all.
Update:
According to the L.A. Times, "Authorities said the welfare hold was prompted by a telephone call they received from Spear's psychiatrist. It was unclear exactly when they had received the call, but it was apparent that the operation had been carefully planned over a period of time. Unlike the first welfare hold — in which Spears' ambulance was closely pursued by a throng of photographers — vehicles today were blocked from following the same route. The motorcade that whisked Spears to the hospital also showed a large investment in resources. The line of emergency vehicles stretched longer than a football field."
