Amanda Bynes ignites her trousers and fears her dog has been burned before involuntary psychiatric hold

 
 
Amanda Bynes ignited her trousers and screamed her dog had been burned after allegedly starting a fire on Monday night in a residential driveway.
 
The 27-year-old actress was found by sheriff's deputies about 9pm standing near the fire burning at a house in Thousand Oaks, California, said Captain Don Aguilar of the Ventura County Sheriff's Department on Tuesday.
  
The sheriff's department and fire department both responded to an emergency 911 call of a gasoline tank fire in a driveway, Aguilar said.
 
The homeowner said deputies later identified the woman as Amanda and said she had burned a part of her own clothing.
 
'It sounded like her clothing had been sort of singed,' the resident told TMZ.
 
A passerby named Andrew Liverpool said he was driving along when he saw a woman with her 'left pant leg on fire' and after he pulled over saw the woman grab her small dog.
 
Amanda tried to leave in a taxi, but Liverpool said he kept the cab from leaving.
 
'She was really frantic and she was like "my dog has been burned,"' Liverpool said.
 
 
A male caller to 911 reported a piece of cloth burning on a gasoline tank on a driveway and a second female caller confirmed a gasoline tank and fire, according to a report in TMZ.
 
Amanda was questioned by Ventura County Sheriff's Department deputies who determined she met the criteria for a psychiatric hold and she was detained, Aguilar said.
 
The 5150 hold is named after the California state code that allows for involuntary hospitalization for a mental health evaluation.
