Lamar Odom

Lamar Odom was rushed to the hospital after being found unconscious and "foaming at the mouth" at a Nevada brothel on Tuesday. The former NBA and reality TV star has yet to regain consciousness, according to multiple reports, as friends and family gather at his bedside.

A source at the hospital told E! News the situation is being treated as an overdose. E! also reported that Odom may have suffered a stroke and "virtually every drug imaginable was found in his system."

A Nevada sheriff said at a Wednesday evening news conference that a person who called 911 reported that Odom had been doing cocaine and had taken sexual performance enhancers.
Nye County Sheriff Sharon Wehrly said an employee for Love Ranch told 911 dispatchers that Odom was found unresponsive with blood coming from his nose and mouth.

The caller said Odom had been doing cocaine and had taken up to 10 tabs of a sexual performance enhancer over three days.
Odom's reality show with wife Khloe Kardashian aired on the E! network.
Officials at the Las Vegas hospital treating Odom, 35, would not provide any update or details regarding his condition.
TMZ reports Khloe and Kim Kardashian, as well as mother Kris Jenner, are by Odom’s side. On Wednesday morning, the Kardashians' half-sister Kendall Jenner tweeted a cryptic message.

Dennis Hof, who owns the Love Ranch and other legal brothels in Nevada, told FOX411 Odom had been staying at the Love Ranch for four days.
"He was polite and reserved, and he told multiple employees that he was there to get some privacy and spend some time relaxing," Hof stated.
Hof, however, told FOX411 that Odom seemed distraught on Sunday.

"He got a call on Sunday and he was upset—he was visibly upset—but he got over it kind of quickly, and the moved on and kept having fun."
Two women went to check on Odom Tuesday afternoon after not hearing from for several hours and found him face down and unconscious.
When they turned him on his side at the direction of a 911 operator, Odom started "throwing up all kinds of stuff."

Hof told us Odom was “foaming at the mouth, laying on his right side. My management called 911. [The 911 operator] said ‘get him on his left side.’ He started throwing up profusely— some blood around his nose and mouth, and then the ambulance took him away.”

The brothel owner said his staff was told by paramedics at the time Odom “wasn’t going to make it.” 
Hof said Odom had been taking herbal Viagra and "did drink alcohol from our bar," including part of a bottle of cognac, since arriving, but had no knowledge of his use of any other drugs.

"My staff told Lamar ‘no drugs,’" Hof emphasized.
He added that police searched the room Odom stayed in and looked through the star's belongings.
