Heather Locklear Arrested for DUI

Heather Locklear mugshotUPDATE: Thanks to a plea deal, Heather has been given three years probation.

Three months after seeking treatment for anxiety and depression, actress Heather Locklear was arrested for a DUI. The 47-year-old was detained by the California Highway Patrol on Friday after a witness called 911.

Locklear, who was originally spotted driving erratically in a parking lot, was later seen parked on the side of the highway. According to the police report, “The citizen became concerned when Ms. Locklear exited her vehicle and stumbled into the traffic lane.”

This incident happened almost exactly 6 months after Heather’s ex-husband, Richie Sambora, was pulled over for drunk driving.

Although alcohol was not a factor in Locklear’s case, it’s believed the disoriented star had been under the influence of prescription medication at the time. Heather was later booked at the Santa Barbara CHP office where she eventually posted $5000 bail.

Heather LocklearI’ve said it before and I’ll say it once again: poor Ava Sambora.

Just this past April, Ava’s father, Richie Sambora, received three years probation after a DUI incident a few months ago. Now the girl’s mother, , is currently away in Arizona getting help for several issues.

The actress’ rep confirmed the news in a statement released today. “Heather has been dealing with anxiety and depression. She requested an in-depth evaluation of her medication and entered into a medical facility for proper diagnosis and treatment.”

This announcement coincidentally comes not too long after paramedics visited the Melrose Place star’s home. Back in March, an acquaintance of Locklear’s - who was not in her residence at the time - believed the star might be suicidal and requested 911 assistance. (Heather later claimed that her friend simply overreacted.)

Well, regardless of whether she needed it then, we really hope that Locklear is getting the help she needs now.
