Former child actress, Tami Erin, was recently apprehended in Los Angeles and charged for drunk driving.

Erin, best known for playing the title character in “The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking,” was arrested on Saturday, December 14.

Once authorities caught her and administered a sobriety test, they verified that she was intoxicated and charged her with driving under the influence and fleeing from multiple crash sites.

One person was reportedly admitted to the hospital with injuries related to the series of car accidents. In addition to the most recent infraction, Erin was arrested last April for assault charges.
