WINDERMERE, Florida (AP) — The Orange County Sheriff's Office has confirmed that fire department medics responded to a 911 call at Tiger Woods' Orlando-area home.

Sheriff's spokesman Jim Solomons told The Associated Press the office got a 911 call from Woods' home at 2:35 a.m. Tuesday and transferred it to Orange County Fire Rescue.

Orange County Fire Rescue spokeswoman Genevieve Latham earlier wouldn't confirm the address but said an adult was taken to Health Central Hospital in Ocoee, the same place Woods was treated after he crashed his sport utility vehicle outside his home last month. The patient's condition wasn't immediately known.

Media attention has been focused on Woods since he hit a hydrant and a tree around 2:25 a.m. on Nov. 27.
