Heather Locklear Arrested
Well I guess it’s nice to see Heather Locklear in the news for something other then marriage/divorce proceedings. It seems that Locklear was arrested Saturday, September 29th on suspicion of driving under the influence. According to Tom Marshall, a spokesperson for the California Highway Patrol, Locklear had been seen driving in an erratic fashion before the traffic stop. Marshall also said:
“Around 4:30 p.m., a female witness saw Heather Locklear driving erratically while leaving a parking lot in Montecito. The witness said Locklear was revving her engine loudly, and backed over a pair of sunglasses several times,”(Source People Magazine)
Locklear was apparently cooperative and polite with the officer in charge of the standard battery of DUI testing. The results of the roadside tests ruled out alcohol for the officer, but prescription drugs were not. After she was arrested Locklear was bailed out within a few hours from the local jail.
It just goes to show you that driving under the influence is a bad idea. Most people are bad enough drivers as is, but add drugs or alcohol to that mix and you have a potentially lethal combination. Hopefully Ms.Locklear will learn from this situation and get whatever help is required in the near future.
