Actress taken to hospital

LOS ANGELES (AP):

Authorities say actress Mischa Barton was taken to the hospital after law enforcement was called to a southern California apartment.

Sergeant Enrique Manduga of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department told The Associated Press that deputies and emergency responders found Barton at a West Hollywood apartment following a report of a woman yelling at about 7 a.m. Thursday.

Manduga says emergency responders took Barton to the hospital. He had no word on her condition.

Barton's representative didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.

The 31-year-old Barton is best known for her role on the Fox teen drama, The O.C.
