Melrose Place alum Heather Locklear continues to struggle. Just days after being hospitalized for a psychiatric evaluation, the actress was arrested for battery against a police officer during an altercation at her home. Read on for details of the incident.

Heather Locklear was arrested on Sunday, June 24, for two counts of misdemeanor battery on a police officer and emergency personnel, according to online records from the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office.
The Melrose Place alum, 56, was taken into police custody at approximately 11:30 p.m. She is being held at the Ventura County Jail on $20,000 bail. She is set to appear in court at 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 26.
According to TMZ, which was first to report the news, a family member called 911 earlier on Sunday to report that Locklear had been heavily intoxicated and extremely agitated. When authorities arrived at the home, the actress allegedly punched one of the deputies who tried to separate her from her family members. She also reportedly kicked an EMT while being placed on a gurney.
The website reported that Locklear was taken to a hospital before being booked in jail.
The news comes exactly one week after the Dynasty alum was hospitalized in Thousand Oaks, California, to undergo a psychiatric evaluation. A family member told police on June 17 that Locklear had been acting erratically and was looking for a gun to shoot herself prior to her hospitalization.
