The Los Angeles Police Department, for its part, has ended its investigation into Heche’s car accident, when the actor crashed into a Los Angeles home on Aug. 5.

“As of today, there will be no further investigative efforts made in this case,” the department announced Friday. “Any information or records that have been requested prior to this turn of events will still be collected as they arrive as a matter of formalities and included in the overall case.
