Austin Powers star Verne Troyer is “getting the best care possible” after being hospitalised for possible alcohol poisoning.

US news site TMZ first reported that Troyer, who is best known for playing Mini-Me in the spy comedy films, was taken to hospital on Monday night after a friend became concerned that he was suicidal and intoxicated.
