Newly released audio from a 911 call has shed light on the distressing moments before actress Tara Reid was rushed to a hospital in the Chicago area late last month. The recording captures a frantic scene where the American Pie star was described as being unable to stand and struggling to communicate.

The incident occurred shortly after midnight on November 23 at the DoubleTree Chicago O'Hare Airport hotel. In the audio, a caller, identified as being with the actress at the time, requested immediate medical assistance. "She can barely stand. She can barely sit in a wheelchair. She's not responding," the caller told the dispatcher. "Sometimes she's giving unresponsive answers."

Throughout the call, Reid can be heard faintly in the background, appearing to slur her words. The caller expressed deep concern for her physical safety, stating, "She goes unresponsive and she wakes up and she says she's fine, but she's not. She's hanging on. She can barely walk." At one point, the caller noted, "It's really bad," adding, "We don't want to leave her in the room and then she gets up and she falls and does something to herself."

Reid was subsequently transported to a local hospital, where she reportedly remained for several hours. Following her release, the 50-year-old actress filed a report with the Rosemont Public Safety Department, alleging she had been drugged by a stranger at the hotel bar. "The next thing I remember was waking up in the hospital around 8 hours or more later not knowing where I was or anything that happened," Reid said in a later statement, insisting she "completely blacked out" after a single drink.

However, local authorities have stated that preliminary evidence does not support the claim of drink tampering. "While video surveillance showed Tara Reid at the hotel bar, at no time did video show anyone tampering with or adding something to her drink," the department announced on Wednesday. Police emphasized that the bartender had covered her drink when she stepped away, which they described as "standard practice."

Despite the police statement, Reid stands by her account. "Bottom line is no one ends up in the hospital incapacitated for over 8 hours after a drink," she said through a representative. Describing the event as a "horrifying experience," she added, "I believe I was drugged. Something happened to me."

Authorities noted that while there is currently "no criminal act that has been committed," the investigation remains technically open as detectives await the release of relevant hospital records.
