A Los Angeles police spokesperson confirmed to NBC News that the Aug. 5 incident involving the actress in Six Days, Seven Nights—who remains in "extremely critical condition" at the hospital—is being investigated as a felony DUI crash. Although authorities couldn't comment on whether cocaine, fentanyl, or alcohol were present in her blood, Lee told the outlet a preliminary test of her blood "revealed the presence of drugs.
