Heather Locklear DUI

Former Melrose Place actress Heather Locklear became a Special Guest Star of the California Highway Patrol on the weekend.

Former Melrose Place actress Heather Locklear became a Special Guest Star of the California Highway Patrol after she was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of a controlled substance on the weekend.

Locklear, 47, was pulled over by a California Highway Patrol in Santa Barbara area on Saturday afternoon after a resident reported seeing the actress leaving a parking lot and “driving erratically.”

The officer noticed Locklear’s car parked on a state highway and blocking a laneway. She was believed to be alone in the car.

“In talking with her, (the officer) determines that she seems to be under the influence of something,” patrol spokesman Tom Marshall said.

Locklear, who played a cop in T. J. Hooker, was taken to the police station, where she was tested for alcohol and drugs. She was booked on suspicion of driving under the influence of prescription medication and later released from custody.

Locklear checked into a medical clinic in June to seek treatment for anxiety and depression.

  1. I found this surpring as she always seemed so in control as Amanada and in other roles. Obviosly something’s gone terribly wrong and I wish her all the best.
    Love you Heather, hope you get well soon

  2. Oh Heather sweetie, not a good look.
    You mustn’t be well to have left the house looking like that!
    Not even a soft focus on the camera would make you look better.
    I feel like bringing you back to my house darling and cooking some scones and making you a nice cup of warm Milo.
    Then tucking you up in bed : )

  3. Great, ever so slightly cross-eyed mugshot.

    I can understand the barely out of their teens types like Lindsay Lohan getting in this kind of trouble, but by the age of 47 you think they would calm down a little.
