GLENDALE, California — Thunder Bay-born actress Marie Avgeropoulos faces a charge of misdemeanor domestic violence after an incident in August involving her boyfriend.

Glendale, California police had arrested the Hollywood star on Aug. 5 after her 41-year-old boyfriend called 9-1-1. 

She was released on bail later that day.

On Monday, Sept. 17 the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office announced her arraignment in court.

Police said Avgeropoulos, 32, and her boyfriend had been arguing in a car on a freeway, and that the man was allegedly struck multiple times in the head, neck and arm, resulting in minor injuries.

A conviction would carry a maximum penalty of 364 days in jail.

Avgeropoulos has played Octavia Blake in the post-apocalyptic TV drama series The 100 since 2014.
