Tom Sizemore |
Sizemore, 49, who's been interviewed by detectives and has been cooperative, is not a suspect in the missing-person case, LAPD Det. Carmine Sasso tells PEOPLE.
Actress Megan Lacy Wren, 25, was last seen in the downtown L.A. area on March 31. Although some have described her as his girlfriend, Sizemore told Det. Sasso that she was just a friend, while the actor's manager outright dismisses any claims of a romantic involvement between the two.
The woman's father, Bill Wren, told CBS News that his daughter had been working for the actor as his assistant. Sizemore "indicated that he didn’t know where she was," Bill Wren said.
The Wren family "is very concerned about Megan's unexplained disappearance, especially given the fact that she has a serious medical condition and is in need of medical care," according to a police statement.
Bill Wren added that his daughter has struggled with substance abuse and was recently hospitalized for a serious staph infection. A police handout with various photos of Megan included several of her mugshots from prior arrests.
Sizemore, who's battled drug addiction for years, was convicted of assaulting girlfriend Heidi Fleiss in 2003 and has since been in and out of jail on various drug-related offenses. Last year, the actor was a cast member on Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew.
Megan Wren is described as a Caucasian female with brown hair, brown eyes, 5'1" tall, weighing 110 lbs., with a slim build and light complexion.
Speaking to ABC News, Sizemore's manager Charles Lago, said Wren "was absolutely not [Sizemore's] girlfriend," despite a report that the two were romantically involved. "He has absolutely nothing to hide," Lago said.
The manager added that he personally removed Wren from his client's apartment on April 25 after learning Sizemore was involved in trying to assist her.
