Woman Who Barricaded Herself In Actor's Home Pleads No Contest to Vandalism Charge

A woman pleaded no contest today to a felony vandalism charge involving items that were damaged inside the Hollywood Hills home of "American Pie" actor Eddie Kaye Thomas.

Roxanna Bear, 32, was ordered to undergo 52 sessions in a mental health counseling program and to serve three years on probation.

She was also given credit for time she had already served in jail and was ordered to stay away from the actor and his home.

Bear is due back in Los Angeles Superior Court Oct. 3 for a restitution hearing.

Bear was arrested after a standoff of more than five hours April 17, in which SWAT officers used flash-bang grenades and tear gas.

Among the items the actor described as being damaged by Bear included a cellular phone, a "name-brand" shirt, some sheets that were "all cut" and a guitar that was written on with a permanent marker, according to testimony at a July 3 hearing in which Bear -- who the actor told police he had met outside a restaurant -- was ordered to stand trial.
