"We're told she ripped Charlie's shirt and attempted to strangle him," the outlet reported, adding that the actor was seen by paramedics but not taken to a hospital.
TMZ said this was not the first confrontation between the neighbours, 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 is notorious for being a Hollywood bad boy with episodes of substance abuse, destructive violence and relationships with porn actresses. 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.
