Courtney Love's Prank Suicide Call To The Police

We all love a good Courtney Love story...
Right after Courtney Love said she was suicidal because someone had stolen Kurt Cobain's ashes, police were called to her home to intervene in a reported suicide attempt.
Courtney was asleep in her home on the border of Beverly Hills and West Hollywood when her house servant was awakened in the middle of the night by loud banging. She answered the front door and was shocked to see 10 police officers standing there.
"An officer held up a ‘5150 order,' a police form which allows them to haul someone off to a psychiatric ward," said the insider. "The house servant went up to Courtney's room and woke her. Courtney was bleary-eyed and very scared when she saw all the officers.
According to the insider, the officers explained that they had obtained the order because of a report they had just received claiming she was trying to take her life.
"She convinced them that there was no truth to it, and they finally agreed to leave without her. But she was extremely shaken."
Police did not reveal who had made the prank suicide call.
Courtney Love was seen riding in a grocery cart over the weekend. She told paparazzi she'd broken her toes.
