Actress Lori Petty will serve five years probation after pleading no contest today to a misdemeanor drunken driving charge.
The actress issued a statement apologizing and vowed that it will be her last arrest on the charge:
"I sincerely apologize for driving after drinking alcohol. I assure you, this first misdemeanor DUI will be my last."
Petty entered the plea through her attorney and has already completed some of the terms of her sentence, which include alcohol abuse counseling.
Petty was arrested May 30 after a skateboarder was hit with a car in the Venice Beach area.
Petty's film credits include Point Break, Tank Girl and A League of Their Own.
