Charlie Sheen’s neighbour reportedly tried to strangle the actor last week after forcing her way into the actor’s home.
A 47-year-old woman, who has not been publicly identified, was arrested and booked for assault with a deadly weapon and burglary after attacking the 58-year-old Two And A Half Men star on Dec 20, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department told TMZ.
Sheen, who was the one to phone authorities, received a knock on his door and the woman barged in as he opened up, sources told the outlet.
The woman reportedly ripped Sheen’s shirt during the attack before heading back to her own house.
Sheen was not taken to the hospital, though paramedics came to the home after the incident, according to TMZ.
The violent altercation is one of several bizarre encounters between the neighbours, the outlet said.
The day before the attempted choking, the neighbour dumped her garbage on Sheen’s doorstep, a source close to the actor told TMZ.
Prior to that, Sheen suspected she was the person responsible for pouring a sticky liquid onto his vehicle, the source said.
It was unclear whether Sheen had reported any of the prior incidents to police. – New York Daily News/Tribune News Service
