Heather Locklear arrested for domestic violence and battery of police officer

Heather Locklear has been arrested for battery of a police officer and suspicion of domestic violence.

As TMZ reports, the Melrose Place actress’ brother Mark arrived at her California home at Thousand Oaks to find her fighting with her boyfriend.

The police were called before they “observed that the boyfriend had a visible mark”. When they attempted to apprehend Locklear, she resisted and struck three deputies. She was then hospital for evaluation before being booked into Ventura County jail.

She has since been released on bail but faces a felony charge for domestic violence and three misdemeanor counts of battery of emergency personnel.

Heather Locklear arrives at the screening of ‘Too Close to Home’ at The Paley Center for Media on August 16, 2016 in Beverly Hills, California.

The actress is best known for starring in TV shows including Melrose Place and Dynasty, and was previously married to Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee before the pair divorced after seven years.

She was also married to Bon Jovi drummer Richie Sambora, before the pair divorced in 2017 after 13 years of marriage.

Last year, she also spoke out after it was claimed that she had entered rehab.

In a statement, she claimed that she was “feeling great… taking steps to enrich and better her life”.
