A warrant has been issued for the arrest of wild rocker and actress Courtney Love for allegedly attacking a woman with a bottle and a torch at a party.

A warrant has been issued for the arrest of wild rocker and actress Courtney Love for allegedly attacking a woman with a bottle and a torch at a party.

The charge stems from an incident at a party at the Los Angeles home of Love’s former manager Jim Barber.

Love has been in and out of court recently on a variety of charges – most involving drugs.

She still faces trial in Beverly Hills on charges of illegally possessing prescription painkillers.

In May, Love was charged in New York after allegedly hitting a fan with a microphone stand at a club.

Love, whose husband, Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain, killed himself in their Seattle home in 1994, gained fame with her band Hole and her role in the film The People vs. Larry Flynt.

She recently released a solo album, America’s Sweetheart.
