Harrison Police Chief David Hall told the New York Daily News that the victim had consumed about 10 Lunesta sleeping pills.
"He was unconscious, but breathing on his own," Hall said.
The Associated Press quoted Hall as saying it was not a suicide attempt: "We're classifying it as an accidental overdose of prescription sleeping pills."
The AP also said Hall refused to provide the victim's identity. "I'm not going to confirm or deny that it was Isiah Thomas," Hall said. "It was an individual at his home."
But The New York Post and WCBS-TV in New York reported that the man taken to the hospital was Thomas. According to The Post, Harrison police said Thomas was taken to White Plains Hospital Center after police and an ambulance were summoned to his Purchase, N.Y., home after midnight following a 911 call.
Thomas denied being taken to the hospital when reached on his cell phone by The Post. He said his 17-year-old daughter Lauren was having an issue but it "wasn't an overdose
Crazy if its him
