'Pippi Longstocking' Star Tami Erin Arrested For DUI, Felony Hit-And-Run

'Pippi Longstocking' Star Arrested

Former "Pippi Longstocking" star Tami Erin was arrested Saturday (Dec. 14) for DUI and felony hit-and-run.

Erin was arrested in Los Angeles on Saturday afternoon after hitting three cars on three separate occasions and fleeing the scene. When cops found her, they conducted a field sobriety test and said she was "totally out of control ... just out of it."

The former actress was arrested and held on $100,000 bail, according to TMZ. One person was taken to the hospital after the incident.

This is the second time Erin has been arrested in recent months. Back in April, she was taken into custody for allegedly assaulting her roommate.

The 39-year-old is famous for playing Longstocking in "The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking" back in 1988. She did little else in the entertainment business after that; however, she did make a move into the adult entertainment biz this past fall with her very own sex tape, TMZ previously reported.

Her ex-boyfriend reportedly attempted to shop around the XXX footage of the child star, but she decided to take matters into her own hands.

“I’m happy I took control of the situation and made a decision as a strong independent woman. I love who I am and I love my sexuality … I’ve seen the sex tape now and it’s hot," Erin told RadarOnline.com last month. “Making love is beautiful and a very important part of a relationship. Everyone does it, everyone has sex … I’m a famous actress caught doing it.”

Fox News reported Erin made $10,000 off the sex tape, but she told Radar she actually made "much more" than that.
