Amanda Bynes of 'Easy A' and 'Hairspray' fame was on April 6, 2012 arrested on a charge of driving under the influence of alcohol in West Hollywood after allegedly hitting a Los Angeles County Sheriff deputy's marked car with her black BMW. She was charged with one misdemeanor count of DUI on June 5, 2012.
No one was hurt in the collision, which occurred around 3 a.m., although both vehicles sustained minor paint damage, officials said in a statement obtained by OnTheRedCarpet.com. The former child star, who celebrated her 26th birthday three days ago, spent several hours in custody before she was released on a $5,000 bond.
Officials said the deputy had prepared to make a right turn and Bynes had tried to pass him, hitting the right ride of his radio car. Her spokesperson had no immediate comments about the incident or the DUI charge, which is a misdemeanor.
A mug shot of her with faded lilac-tinted hair was later released (see above). Bynes had Tweeted about dyeing it in March.
'Lilaclilaclilaclilac lilac lilac lilac lilac lilac!!!!!!!!' she said. 'Did I mention I dyed my hair lilac?!?!?! LILAC !!!!!!!!'
