Emmy Award-winning actor Alec Baldwin was taken to a Manhattan hospital early today
when his teenage daughter frantically called 911, claiming he had threatened to take pills after they got into a heated fight, sources said.
While the 12:10 a.m. call came in as a “possible alcohol or drug overdose,” sources told The Post that Baldwin never swallowed sleeping pills and had only threatened to do so.
The “30 Rock” actor, who lives on Central Park West, was released from Lenox Hill Hospital shortly after 1 a.m., according to sources.
“This was a misunderstanding on one person’s part. Alec was quickly released from the hospital; he’s completely fine and will be at work today,” said Baldwin's spokesman Matthew Hiltzik.
It remains unclear what the arguement was about, although this is not the first time Baldwin and his daughter, 14-year-old Ireland, have sparred.
In 2007, Baldwin blamed a bitter custody battle with ex-wife, actress Kim Basinger, in part for the anger he was feeling when he berated their daughter in a phone message later leaked to reporters.
In the voicemail, Baldwin called Ireland, who was 11 at the time, a “rude, thoughtless little pig.”

Another Libtard Father of The Year Award for him. Just once I wish he would follow through on his promises.
