Heather Locklear Hit With Lawsuit Threat After Latest Assault Arrest

Heather Locklear was rushed into rehab as California cops prepared to crack down on the troubled actress’ multiple meltdowns — but now the former “Dynasty” star is also facing a potential lawsuit over kicking a female paramedic in the chest! A local deputy was also assaulted as the troubled actress was subdued after a suicidal rant at her Ventura County home on June 24. TMZ reports that the EMT called to her house has now hired an attorney to seek compensation for pain and suffering after the incident — in a case that could also put Heather in prison!

As earlier covered by The National ENQUIRER, Heather already had legal reasons to check herself into a long-term rehab facility on June 29. Her arrest after the tequila-fueled meltdown at her house had also endangered a plea deal that her lawyers were putting together — after she'd attacked other cops just days earlier!

Heather had already attacked a deputy on the night of June 24 before the paramedics were called. A potential lawsuit over the paramedic's claims of pain and suffering puts new pressure on police to finally pursue a criminal case. “

The lawsuit also puts new financial pressure on Heather — with the veteran star of "Melrose Place" and "Spin City" becoming a Hollywood pariah in the midst of a planned comeback. “Heather’s at absolute rock bottom right now,” said a source — adding that the June 24 rampage was just the horrific end of a week filled with violent rages.

The source added that Heather's latest meltdown really started on June 15 when the fading bombshell accused her boyfriend, Chris Heisser, of cheating on her in a barrage of text messages. When Chris returned to their home, said the insider, Heather “raged” at him before “throwing things at him, and punching him in the face!”

In fact, Heather had started 2018 with a short stint in rehab — following a Sept. 2017 fight with Chris that ended with her driving into a ditch and breaking her collarbone. By Feb. 2018, however, a new brawl with Chris had Heather arrested on charges of domestic violence and assault. The possibility of a lawsuit seemed inevitable to one insider, who'd warned: “Heather’s a danger to herself and everyone around her!”
