Breaking News! Heather Locklear Arrested After "Concerned Citizen" Calls CHP

Actress Heather Locklear was arrested around 5 p.m. Saturday evening after California Highway Patrol officers found theSpin City star in her parked car blocking traffic in Montecito, Calif., a tony enclave near Santa Barbara.

According to the police report, a "concerned citizen" called police after witnessing Locklear "driving forwards and backwards over a pair of sunglasses and revving her engine" in a parking lot.

The witness then came upon Locklear again on the road.

"The citizen became concerned when Ms. Locklear exited her vehicle and stumbled into the traffic lane...the citizen called 911 and reported the entire incident to CHP Ventura Dispatch."

The report states that when officers arrived Locklear appeared disoriented, and after giving her a DUI test they determined it was not alcohol. "Although obvious impairment was exhibited during the tests, alcohol was ruled out as a factor." Locklear was arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence and taken to the Santa Barbara CHP office.

"She was evaluated by a drug recognition expert, who concluded Ms. Locklear was under the influence of a controlled substance, and could not safely operate a motor vehicle."

Locklear was then booked at the Santa Barbara County Jail. She was released at 11 p.m. that evening on $5,000 bail.

In June, Locklear, 47, checked into a rehab center in Arizona for anxiety and depression. She returned home after one month at the Sierra Tucson treatment facilty.

Locklear's representative said there would not be any comment.
