Entertainment outlet TMZ said Schrock (47) is one of Sheen's neighbors, who had "forced her way into his home and attacked him when he opened the door."

"We're told she ripped Charlie's shirt and attempted to strangle him," the title reported, adding that Sheen was seen by paramedics but not taken to a hospital.

TMZ said this was not the first confrontation between the neighbors, reporting that previous incidents had included a sticky liquid being squirted on Sheen's car.

Sheen (58) is the son of actor Martin Sheen and notorious for being a Hollywood bad boy with episodes of substance abuse, destructive violence, and relationships with porn stars.

He has appeared in films including Platoon, Wall Street (alongside his father) and Young Guns.

His television career has included Spin City and Two and a Half Men, a series loosely based on his hard-partying reputation.
