Heather Locklear was arrested last night on felony charges of domestic violence and battery against a police officer at a home in Thousand Oaks, California, Breaking Celebrity News can confirm.

Officer Cook with Ventura County Sheriff's Department told Breaking Celebrity News exclusively, "A call came in at 9:40 p.m. by someone reporting domestic violence by Heather Locklear at their residence."

According to online reports, the 56-year-old troubled actress — who as Breaking Celebrity News exclusively revealed, checked into rehab for the sixth time over the holidays — became combative during the arrest and attacked a police officer, which resulted in three counts of misdemeanor battery on an officer.

Officer Cook would not confirm the identity of the individual Locklear was charged with attacking, but did tell Breaking Celebrity News the Melrose Place star has "since posted bail and is no longer in police custody."

As Breaking Celebrity News exclusively reported, Locklear battered her boyfriend Chris Heisser in a nasty fight in September.

She was also hospitalized in the fall after driving her Porsche into a ditch.
