Amanda Bynes has been hospitalized and held for a mental evaluation after the former Nickelodeon star started a fire on a random woman’s driveway. Police said she had burned a part of her clothing, according to TMZ, who also reports the elderly woman who owned the home was unaware of any vendetta or cause for Amanda’s behavior.

Police responded to a call after 9 p.m. in Thousand Oaks, Calif., after someone noticed the fire. That is where they ran into Bynes:

When sheriff’s deputies arrived, they questioned Amanda about what she was doing, and why she was doing it — and based on her answers, they determined she needed to be hospitalized on a 5150 hold. Translation: her answers were really wacky.

Bynes’ behavior has become increasingly erratic as of late, from her odd love-hate of rapper Drake, to her blasting of Rihanna on Twitter.
