Photos: Heather Locklear arrested for beating up her boyfriend

Heather Locklear was arrested for beating up her boyfriend attacking three cops who came to break up the fight late Sunday.

A source in the Ventura police department tells DailyMail.com that Locklear 'was wasted' when she and Chris Heisser, the high school sweetheart she recently reconnected with, 'got into a physical fight' at her house in Thousand Oaks, California Sunday night. The source says the former Melrose Place star, 56, asked an unidentified woman who works with her to call police. But that backfired on her when cops showed up and tried to arrest Locklear, since she had 'practically bit the tip off of Heisser's nose'. This caused the actress to snap, and she 'attacked three of' the four cops that showed up at her door. 'She punched the lady cop and called her a "c**t", kicked one of the male cops in the balls and punched the third male cop and called them all "f****** assholes" ranting at them,' the source said. Because she had claimed to have been beaten by Heisser, Locklear was first taken to the hospital for evaluation. She was booked into the Ventura County Jail around 1am on a felony count of domestic violence and three counts of misdemeanor battery on a peace officer.
