Anne Heche was involved in a fiery car crash on Friday that has left her “severely burned” and “intubated” in the hospital, TMZ reports.
The Vanished actress, 53, was reportedly driving her blue Mini Cooper down a suburban street in Los Angeles around noon when she crashed into the garage of an apartment complex, the New York Post reports.
According to the outlet, bystanders tried to help Heche exit the vehicle, but she allegedly backed up and drove off before crashing into another home where her car became “engulfed” in flames.

Pakistan Consulate in Melbourne or High Commission in Canberra might have sites up on Pakistan specific appeals.
Any donations to WFP UNHCR or ICRC would increase their budgets so that they would have enough to commit in Pakistan. They all have country specific programs, operate in areas of need to the extent that governments allow them to, none of them discriminate on the basis of political worthiness or the political flavour of the month.
It’s a bit of a myth that international NGO’s making country specific appeals actually earmark the donations for that country.
