Charlie Sheen has pleaded with an ex-police officer, who is on the run, to call him.

The 'Anger Management' star has released a video message via gossip website TMZ.com asking former Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) employee Christopher Dorner, who is the target of a massive manhunt in California and is accused of killing three people including a cop, to contact him to talk things out.

The former 'Two And A Half Men' actor - who was praised by the ex-cop, thanked the suspect for his 'kind words' but asked the man to make contact, saying: 'You mentioned me in your manifesto, so thank you for your kind words. I am urging you to call me. Let's figure out together how to end this thing.'

The 47-year-old actor was one of a number of celebrities, including TV chat show host Ellen DeGeneres, 'Inglourious Basterds' star Christopher Waltz and comedian Larry David, mentioned in Dorner's 'uncensored manifesto', which he posted online earlier this week.

In his message to Charlie, the ex-cop said: 'Charlie Sheen, you're effin awesome. (sic)'

Dorner is still currently at large and has been labelled as a 'very dangerous individual.'

Charlie has had several brushes with the law in the past relating to domestic violence and drugs but he is said to be eager to help law enforcement bring the ex-cop out of hiding.
