Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … Bynes was pulled over by LAPD officers on Saturday morning after a call for a woman in distress. This woman, as we learned, is Bynes. We are told she was taken to a police station where a professional medical unit stood by to examine her and determine if she needed further treatment.

As you can see, as part of this process... Amanda was detained. Eyewitnesses told us she was calm when interacting with cops and looked defeated when they dealt with her. We are told she was placed aft of one of the 3 cruisers that arrived at her position.
It is not known if Amanda was escorted out of her home, or if she was just found on the street here. We also don't know if she was ultimately taken to the hospital for full 5150 care, or if she was released by the LAPD. We are working to get more information now.
