"Mavs' rookie hospitalized following overdose, arrest"
(AP) - The odyssey of 19-year-old Leon Smith has taken another bizarre
twist, with the Dallas Mavericks rookie spending time in a psychiatric
ward after police found him overdosed on aspirin. A house guest called
police late Sunday saying Smith threw a large rock through the rear
window of his Ford Explorer. When officers arrived, they found Smith
passed out on the floor of his apartment wearing green war paint on his
face, a police report  states. Smith slightly resisted officers and
paramedics, then stopped and "stated that he was an Indian and was
fighting Columbus," the report said. The visitor -- a 33-year-old friend
from the group home where Smith was raised -- told police Smith had
taken more than 250 pain relievers. Smith was taken to the psychiatric
ward of Parkland Health & Hospital System. Hospital officials said Smith
was in their care Monday.
