TMZ is reporting that actor Charlie Sheen was "taken out of his home on a stretcher and loaded into an ambulance at 7 AM." Sheen was reportedly taken to Cedars-Sinai Hospital for an as-yet unknown condition. The celeb gossip site says that Sheen was taken out of the house with "a towel partially over his face," and that "two young women" accompanied him out. Another gossip site, Hollyscoop, says that they've been told by Sheen's publicist Stan Rosenfield the Two and a Half Men star "was having severe abdominal pains and went to the hospital." A 9-1-1- call was reportedly logged at 6:35 a.m.
