Lori Petty, best known for her roles in Tank Girl and A League of Their Own, pleaded no contest last week to a misdemeanor DUI charge and will serve five years’ probation.

Petty, 45, was arrested last May after allegedly hitting a 14-year-old skateboarder while driving in Venice, Calif. The boy’s injuries were minor.

The actress will pay fines and receive outpatient treatment and attend AA meetings, according to Los Angeles Superior Court records. A second DUI charge was dismissed as part of Petty’s plea deal.

Petty did not attend the hearing, but was represented by her attorney, Blair Berk.
