Anne Heche slipped into a coma after she crashed into a home last week and is in critical condition, despite earlier reports that she was stable, a spokesperson for the actor said Monday.

Heche has a "significant" pulmonary injury requiring mechanical ventilation and burns that need surgery, the spokesperson said.

Heche, 53, was hospitalized after the Aug. 5 crash in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Mar Vista shortly before 11 a.m.

The Los Angeles Fire Department reported a “heavy fire” engulfed the car and home with “stubborn flames” that took almost 60 firefighters over an hour to extinguish.

Police in Los Angeles obtained a warrant Friday to draw her blood, and Heche could face misdemeanor DUI and hit-and-run charges if it is determined she was under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Any findings would be presented to the City Attorney’s Office.
