Romulus police say that actress Yasmine Bleeth was arrested after crashing her car into a median Wednesday night.

Bleeth, 33, was in the area reportedly to visit her boyfriend's parents. She was unable to leave after flights were grounded at Detroit/Wayne County Metropolitan Airport in the wake of Tuesday's terrorist attacks on the East Coast.

Police said that Bleeth was allegedly driving a rental car eastbound on Interstate 94 near Middlebelt Road when she lost control and crashed into a median.

The former Baywatch actress was released Thursday morning.

If the test comes back positive, she could face criminal charges, Romulus police said.
