Suicide Attempt and Hospitalization

On Saturday evening, July 13 2026, Kim Scott — formerly known as Kim Mathers and the ex-wife of rapper Marshall “Eminem” Mathers — was found bleeding after cutting her wrist with a pocket knife at her home in Chesterfield Township, Michigan. Dispatch audio recorded the caller reporting that his aunt had “cut her wrist and she’s bleeding.” Emergency responders arrived to a scene described as a “hemorrhage/laceration” with heavy, uncontrolled bleeding. Scott was placed on a gurney, loaded into an ambulance, and transported to McLaren Macomb Hospital in Mount Clemens. Her condition was listed as unknown at the time of reporting.

Recent Legal Troubles

The suicide attempt occurred amid a series of recent criminal matters. In May 2026, Scott was arrested for an alleged operating-while-intoxicated (OWI) crash that struck a parked vehicle near Detroit. A June 2026 bench warrant was issued after she missed a court hearing on that charge; the warrant was later rescinded. Earlier, she had pleaded no contest to misdemeanor impaired-driving charges stemming from a February 16, 2026 hit-and-run in which her Range Rover struck a parked Dodge Ram. In May 2026 she faced a felony DUI charge after allegedly hitting a Jeep Cherokee while driving a 2026 Kia. The June 26 hearing resulted in her agreement to an outpatient treatment program, and prosecutors indicated a possible hearing to resolve contradictory blood-alcohol test results. She is scheduled to appear in court again on August 13 2026.

Law Enforcement Response

Chesterfield Township police and fire/EMS units responded to the 8 p.m. call. The fire/EMS report classified the incident as “Hemorrhage/Laceration.” Police described Scott as “irate and combative,” noting she was only wearing a bra and underwear when officers arrived. When officers attempted to handcuff her, she resisted, bit an officer’s forearm, and kicked a deputy in the left shin, prompting the use of a taser. The officer who was bitten required hospital treatment for the wound and exposure to Scott’s blood. She was subsequently arrested for assaulting a police officer and resisting arrest.

On-the-Ground Reports

Dispatch recordings captured the caller’s urgent description of the self-inflicted wound and the victim’s refusal to relinquish the knife. First responders reported that Scott was “currently sitting on the couch listening to music” before becoming unconscious. Video released by TMZ shows Scott being wheeled out of her basement on a gurney, appearing conscious but visibly distressed.

Conflicting Reports & Gaps

While the fire/EMS report lists Scott as unconscious at the time of transport, the video footage shows her conscious while being loaded into the ambulance. No official medical update has been released, leaving her current health status unconfirmed. Additionally, the police narrative emphasizes her aggression, whereas the dispatcher’s audio focuses on the medical emergency, creating a partial picture of the incident’s dynamics.
