Charlie Sheen was inside his Malibu home on Dec. 20 when his neighbor, a 47-year-old woman named Electra Schrock, knocked on the door.

After Charlie opened the door, the woman "forced her way into his home and attacked him," TMZ reported. During the melee, she allegedly ripped Charlie's shirt and attempted to strangle him.

When she felt she'd done enough, TMZ reported, Electra retreated back to her own nearby home.

Charlie Sheen called 911 following the alleged attack. Both police and paramedics arrived at the scene. Charlie, however, was not transported to the hospital, TMZ reported.

It's still unclear what prompted the woman to allegedly attack the actor, but it's not the first time she's reportedly had issues with the "Major League" star.

TMZ reported that Charlie Sheen has had a tumultuous one-sided history with Electra Schrock.

He recently accused her of squirting some type of sticky liquid on his car, TMZ reported. The actor allegedly approached the woman about the incident and they both agreed to move past it. 

But apparently Electra didn't.

In fact, according to a source close to the actor, she dumped trash in front of Charlie's door one day before the alleged Dec. 20 attack.

According to TMZ, Electra Schrock was arrested and booked in jail for assault with a deadly weapon and burglary following the Dec. 20 incident, which comes weeks after Charlie Sheen spoke about raising his 14-year-old twin sons, Max and Bob, as a "single dad."

"Their mom has been trying to figure some stuff out on her end, so she's not in the picture too much right now," he told People magazine of ex-wife Brooke Mueller, who later disputed tjhe claim she's not involved in their boys' lives.

Charlie is currently six years sober.
