Heather Locklear, the former star of TV shows such as Dynasty, Melrose Place, and Spin City, was allegedly involved in a hit-and-run auto accident last weekend, hitting a street sign near her home in Los Angeles. Locklear fled the scene without reporting the auto accident to the police.
Video footage from a security camera at the golf club community where the accident took place show’s Locklear’s car driving by near the time of the auto accident. While the vehicle was not caught on video crashing into the street sign, debris near the accident scene has made it clear that her car was in fact involved in the auto accident.
The 48-year-old actress has been charged with a misdemeanor hit-and-run, although according to her lawyer, it is uncertain whether Locklear was actually driving the car at the time of the crash. She must appear in court on May 17.
Two years ago, Locklear was involved in another driving incident resulting in criminal charges being filed. She was charged with a DUI which was eventually dropped when she agreed to plead guilty to reckless driving.
If you have suffered a serious injury from the negligent actions of another driver, an experienced auto accident lawyer can help you receive the compensation you deserve.
