When the group was able to get her into the wheelchair, Reid began mumbling incoherent words as her head loosely swayed.

“Come on, guys,” the “Sharknado” star said to the men as she remained stagnant in the wheelchair.

When one man began pushing Reid through the hotel lobby, her entire body went limp and her midriff was exposed as she fell halfway out of the mobile chair.

Several people had to help lift Reid back into the wheelchair.

The video then cut to show a group of paramedics leading Reid through the hotel lobby as she lay on a stretcher. TMZ reported that she was taken to a nearby hospital.

A rep for Reid alleged to Page Six in a statement: “Tara Reid has filed a police report after an incident in which she believes her drink was tampered with. She is cooperating fully with the investigation.”

“Tara is recovering and asks for privacy during this traumatic time,” the rep continued. “She also urges everyone to be careful, watch your drinks and never leave them unattended, as this can happen to anyone. She will not be making further comments at this stage.”

A spokesperson for Rosemont Police told Page Six that they responded to an EMS call Sunday morning at the hotel, and that the patient was transported to the hospital.

According to the spokesperson, they haven’t received a report regarding claims Reid was drugged.

In a statement to TMZ, the “American Reunion” actress said she checked into her room late Saturday and went downstairs to grab a drink at the bar.

Once she ordered the beverage, Reid said she ran into a group of YouTubers in the lobby when she went to smoke a cigarette and one of them joined her in the smoke session.

When Reid returned to the bar, she told TMZ that her drink was covered by a napkin that she did not place there.

Reid told the outlet that after she removed the napkin and consumed the drink, the next thing she recalled was being in the hospital.

She later told TMZ Live, “Without finishing my drink, I just passed out. Before I knew it, I was at the hospital, eight hours later. It’s really scary… You have to really be careful with your drink. [The hospital] said, ‘You got drugged last night at the bar.’”

While Reid has had past issues with substance abuse, she told TMZ that she only had one drink Sunday night.
