LISTEN: 911 Calls by Victoria Principal and Maid

Originally posted 05/13/2009 06:00PM

Victoria Principal and her maid both put out emotional pleas for help after a confrontation at the actress's Malibu home, according to tapes of the calls.

"[She] want to kill me," housekeeper Maribel Banegas tells the emergency operator Dec. 26. "I need help. She's pointing a gun. She's going to kill me. She's after me."

In her own call, the Dallas star portrays Banegas as the problem. "I have a housekeeper that I don't really know who's on the premises," Principal is heard saying. "She's locked herself in the guesthouse and she's robbing me. I told her I'm calling the police and I need you here now. She's threatening and she's locked herself in the guesthouse."

Why Did Victoria Principal Pull a Gun on Her Maid?

This much is certain: After a housekeeper took former Dallas star Victoria Principal's dog out for a walk the day after Christmas, the two women got into a heated argument and Principal pulled a gun on her.

But the rest of the story is in dispute, with both sides accusing the other of assault and offering conflicting accounts of the clash. No charges have been filed, leaving the matter in civil court, with back-to-back lawsuits filed in the last week.

Principal, 59, best known for playing Pamela Barnes Ewing on the long-running TV drama who went on to launch a successful line of skin-care products called The Principal Secret, says in a lawsuit filed Tuesday in Superior Court in Santa Monica, Calif., that the troubles began after she hired maid Maribel Banegas through an agency for temporary work.
