Last week, Locklear was placed on an involuntary psychiatric hold last week after she allegedly attacked her parents. She was accused of choking her mother and physically assaulting her father.

As reported by People, the Melrose Place star was threatening to end her life. The audio dispatch suggested that Locklear was 'agitated and violent' and threatened to hurt herself if anybody intervened.

The 56-year-old did not have any access to a weapon when she made the threat, but the officers mentioned that Locklear was searching for her gun to use it.

According to People, Garo Kuredjian of the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office could not confirm or comment on the 911 call, but he said that the person was treated by Ventura County Fire Department and later transported to a hospital.

In February, Locklear was arrested on suspicion of domestic abuse and three counts of battery on a law enforcement officer. Police found a weapon registered in her name at her residence.

Locklear has had a history of substance abuse. She battled addiction in 2008, and her doctor called 911 in March 2008 stating that the actress was suicidal.
