    I've read it in a local newspaper.

    Jayson Williams (Former New Jersey Nets) was hospitalized for psychiatric evaluation on Monday following a early morning run-in with police that led to Williams being stunned with a Taser.

    The Police found out at a smart Manhattan hotel empty bottles of prescription medications thrown around the room and Jayson appeared Suicidal.
