TMZ cited law enforcement sources as saying that police and paramedics responded to a call about a man about 30 years old who possibly overdosed on LSD at JoJo's home, a mansion in the neighborhood of Tarzana in the San Fernando Valley. A Los Angeles Police Department spokesperson told E! News that officers responded to a medical emergency at the Nickelodeon star's house, without elaborating. No arrests were made. E! News has reached out to JoJo's rep for comment. NBC has not confirmed the report of an overdose.
