Heather Locklear was hospitalized in Thousand Oaks, California, on Sunday, June 17, for a psychiatric evaluation, the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office confirms to Us Weekly.
A police source tells Us that a family member called 911 and claimed that the Melrose Place alum, 56, had been acting erratically and threatened to hurt herself. The caller also alleged that Locklear was looking for a gun to shoot herself, according to TMZ, which was first to report the news.
The Ventura County Sheriff’s Office and Fire Department both responded to Locklear’s home at approximately 3:50 p.m. They found that “there was no crime, only a medical issue,” the police tell Us.
The news comes nearly four months after the actress was arrested on a felony charge of domestic violence and three counts of misdemeanor battery on a police officer following a domestic dispute with her boyfriend, Chris Heisser. Authorities told Us on February 25 that Locklear was “uncooperative and agitated” and threatened to shoot the responding officers.
