Charlie Sheen, the American actor, was subjected to an assault by a woman at his residence in Malibu, according to Los Angeles police.

The incident took place around 1:00 PM local time on Wednesday, as reported by authorities. Electra Schrock, 47, has been taken into custody on charges of assault with a deadly weapon and residential burglary.

Although paramedics were called to Charlie Sheen's home afterward, he was not transported to the hospital. The police did not disclose a potential motive for the assault.

The Los Angeles Sheriff's Department released a statement confirming the midday attack on the former star of "Two and a Half Men." Electra Schrock, reportedly a neighbor of Mr. Sheen, faces additional charges related to using force likely to cause significant bodily injury.

The police did not specify the weapon used in the alleged attack.

TMZ reports that Ms Schrock attempted to strangle Mr Sheen and ripped his shirt after he opened his front door.

Ms Schrock had earlier this year pleaded no contest to a charge of misdemeanour elder abuse, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Mr Sheen, 58, has featured in Hollywood blockbusters such as Platoon, Wall Street and Major League.

He starred for eight seasons on CBS hit sitcom Two and a Half Men, before a spectacular falling out with the show's creator.

He went on to court tabloid headlines with a series of bizarre interviews. He later said that he regretted his actions during that time and blamed his behavior on drug and alcohol abuse.

In an interview with People magazine earlier this month, Mr Sheen said that "next month I'll be six years sober".

"I have a very consistent lifestyle now. It's all about single dad stuff, and raising my 14-year-old twin boys," the actor said.
