Amanda Bynes in Psychiatric Hold for 72 Hours After Setting Fire in Neighbors Driveway

Bonnie Braaten is a homeowner in Thousand Oaks, California who had her driveway set on fire, allegedly by troubled actress Amanda Bynes.  

"I have no idea what she was doing," Braaten told US Weekly, noting that she's been told that Bynes' parents live nearby. "I don't even think she has an idea what she was doing."

Braaten's neighbor, Bruno Corsi, was the one who noticed and extinguished the fire. He said she was working in his garage when came out to see teenagers trying to stop a fire in his neighbors yard.  He reportedly saw a women with "long blonde hair...sitting on the sidewalk".  Recently Amanda Bynes has been wearing a blonde wig like the one he saw. 

Braaten was unaware of the incident at the time it occurred because she was in her back bedroom watching TV. 

The fire was apparently started by a cloth that was sitting on top of the gas can in the driveway that got sparked, possibly by Bynes. 

"There was a gas can, a two- or three-gallon container," he said. "It was melting. If it were metal, it would have exploded, but it was plastic. [There were] four- or five-feet flames."

Bynes was found and placed on an involuntary 72-hour psychiatric hold after the fire incident. 

A witness who called 911 reportedly confronted Bynes as she was trying to catch a cab saying "her dog had been burned". Surveillance footage show Bynes later at a liquor store close by trying to get into a "employee only" area to get the gas off her dog. When confronted by an employee, she left. 

Bynes was reportedly "incapable of giving good answers" to the police about the fire.
