Earlier today it was reported that NFL player, Terrell Owens tried to committ suicide by swallowing a bottle full of pills. Well T.O. is speaking out about the whole event..
Terrell Owens said he didn’t try to commit suicide and said his publicist’s call to 911 was a case of misunderstanding.
“There was no suicide attempt,” Owens said. “The rumor of me taking 35 pills is absurd,” said Owens, who said the rest of the pills in the empty bottle were in a drawer.
Owens said his publicist made the 911 call out a fear for his well being.
“I really wasn’t as coherent as they thought I was,” Owens said when asked if he told rescue workers he tried to hurt himself.
A confusing series of events swirled around T.O. with few answers for most of Wednesday after an internal police report indicated he tried to kill himself by overdosing on prescription pain medication, even putting two more pills into his mouth after a friend intervened.
The Dallas police report said Owens was asked by rescue workers “if he was attempting to harm himself, at which time [he] stated, ‘Yes.’”
Owens left the hospital late Wednesday morning, giving reporters a “thumbs up” but making no comment as he was driven away in an SUV. [READ MORE]
