Austin Powers star and Centreville, Michigan native Verne Troyer was hospitalized Monday Night and the details are both strange and sad.

According to TMZ,

Law enforcement sources tell us a friend of Verne's made the call around 7:30 PM, and described him as being extremely upset, drunk and suicidal. We're told cops and fire department paramedics responded, and Verne was transported to a hospital for possible alcohol poisoning.

TheBlast.com reports that Troyer is being held on a 72 involuntary psychiatric hold.

Before Verne Troyer was a famous actor he graduated from Centreville High School right here in West Michigan.  We all wish him and his family the best.
