(CBS/AP) Yancy Butler, who starred in the cable TV show "Witchblade," has been charged with driving under the influence after crashing her Saab 900 into a wire guard rail, state police said.
Butler, 36, was also charged Tuesday with failure to drive in the established lane.
The actress was released on a $500 bond and ordered to appear in Bantam Superior Court on March 26.
Butler was charged last month with disorderly conduct after an argument with a former boyfriend, police said.
The actress last appeared in 2006's "Striking Range" with Lou Diamond Phillips.
