Heather Locklear arrested for domestic violence
'Melrose Place' star Heather Locklear was reportedly arrested for felony domestic violence and attacking a police officer. When cops attempted to arrest the 56-year-old, she reportedly became violent.
More details of Heather Locklear's arrest for domestic violence and assaulting police officers have emerged.
The New York Post reports that Locklear called a female officer a "c–t" and kicked a male officer in the groin in front of her 20-year-old daughter, Ava Sambora.
Sargent Eric Buschow, of the Ventura County Sheriff's Office, told Fox News while he would not comment on the specific language Locklear used, he did describe her behavior as "extremely hostile."
"She was extremely hostile towards the deputies almost from the outset," Sgt. Buschow told us. "And she did kick and push and fight with deputies."
Locklear's lawyer had no comment when reached by Fox News.

Locklear's live-in boyfriend is reportedly her high school sweetheart Chris Heisser. The 56-year-old recently posted a picture of the pair on social media captioning it, "My favorite person on earth. 40 years later."
Heisser was arrested Monday morning after California Highway Patrol pulled him over for speeding and he blew a .19 and a .20 when given a field sobriety test, according to TMZ.
In 2011, Heisser, also 56, was convicted of theft and fraud and served two years in prison, The Post reports.
Locklear has also had her fair share of run-ins with the law.
The actress was arrested in 2008 on suspicion of driving under the influence but the charges were later dismissed. She was sentenced to three years of informal probation and ordered to pay a $700 fine and take a driver safety class.
In the same year, authorities were called to Locklear's home following a 911 call from her doctor, who feared she overdosed on prescription medication but the warning turned out to be a false alarm.

Three years later, according to TMZ, police went to the home of Locklear's then-boyfriend Jack Wagner in 2011 after a fight turned physical between the couple. A law enforcement source told TMZ at the time that Locklear "lost it on him and he retaliated."
Locklear's troubles continued in 2012 when her sister called 911 after fearing Locklear "was going to harm herself."
TMZ reported at the time that the actress had ingested a "dangerous mix" of a prescription drug, said to be Xanax, and alcohol.

Locklear has struggled with substance abuse in the past and most recently entered rehab last year.
