The mug shot of "Melrose Place" star Amy Locane-Bovenizer has been released after police say she crashed into another car while driving drunk, killing the passenger and critically injuring the driver.
According to Acting Somerset County Prosecutor A. Peter DeMarco Jr., the fatal accident was not her first of the night.
Police say that Locane-Bovenizer was driving drunk Sunday night when she smashed her SUV into the passenger side of a sedan as it was turning into a driveway in Montgomery Township, N.J., about 10 miles north of Princeton. The driver, Fred Seeman, was hospitalized in critical condition; his wife Helene died at the scene.
DeMarco said responding officers detected the odor of alcohol on Locane-Bovenizer's breath and arrested her.
Locane-Bovenizer allegedly admitted to police later Sunday evening that she had downed several glasses of wine prior to driving, according to the paper.
Locane-Bovenizer is charged with vehicular homicide and assault by auto. She is being held at the Somerset County Jail in lieu of $50,000 cash bail.
