Charlie Sheen made a desperate plea to find his parents as devastating monster wildfires ravage swathes of California, including the celebrity enclave of Malibu.
Writing on social media, the actor said said he had been unable to get in touch with his film star father Martin Sheen and mother Janet and wanted to know they were "safe and sound in the middle of this horrific scenario".

The massive fires are raging out of control in northern and southern California and have already killed at least nine people and forced hundreds of thousands to flee their homes.

His parents were later found safe by a US news crew, amid the evacuation of areas threatened by the fast-moving wildfires.
In a message to his four children, Martin said: "Emilio, Ramone, Renee, Charlie, we're fine.
"We're at Zuma Beach. We're probably going to sleep in the car tonight. We're just fine and hope you guys are, too."
A number of celebrities have been caught up in the destructive blazes.
Caitlyn Jenner wrote on Instagram: "We're out of the fire zone and are safe. Thinking about all those that are affected and hope you all are safe too."
In an accompanying clip she said: "Don't know if the house made it or not."
Her stepdaughter Kim Kardashian West, who has been evacuated from the home she shares with Kanye West in the exclusive area of Hidden Hills, northwest of Los Angeles, said flames had come close to the property.
She wrote on Twitter: "Firefighters, I love you and thank you for doing all that you can to keep us safe!"
Later she shared a picture of herself kissing her seven-month-old niece True, the daughter of Khloe Kardashian .
The caption said: "Trying to get my mind off of this fire and snuggling with my niece. We are all safe and that's all that matters."
Singer Lady Gaga posted a video on her Instagram account saying she had evacuated her Malibu home, and showing images of dark billowing smoke overhead.
Thank you to the fire fighters, police, first and emergency responders for doing above and beyond everything you can do to help us. You are true heroes. #CaliforniaFire
