Richards was taken into custody earlier this month after she allegedly attempted to steal over $600 worth of merchandize from a Target store in Van Nuys, California. In the days that followed, reports claimed she could ultimately be placed on a 5150 hold by concerned family members, including her sisters, Kyle Richards and Kathy Hilton.
"Kim Richards, who was arrested on Sunday, Aug. 2, for allegedly shoplifting from a Target in L.A’s San Fernando Valley, has been admitted to a hospital by concerned family members," multiple sources told Us Weekly on Saturday. "The troubled reality star, who checked out of rehab in July after one month, has reportedly fallen back into old habits."
“Her family checked her in,” the source explained to the magazine. “She wants to get out ASAP, but her family refuses.”
Despite the report, however, Entertianment Tonight insists Richards was spotted out and about in Los Angeles on Saturday.
