NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. (AP) - Former child star Danielle Fishel, a teen heartthrob on ABC's ''Boy Meets World,'' was arrested this week on a drunken driving warrant from Los Angeles County, police said.

Fishel was arrested Thursday just before 5 a.m. after officers stopped a car she was in, said Newport Beach Sgt. James Rocker. She was released from jail shortly after her arrest.

Fishel grew up in Yorba Linda and spent more than seven years playing Topanga, the love interest of ''Boy Meets World'' star Ben Savage.

In 2006, Fishel became the spokeswoman for NutriSystem after she announced on The Tyra Banks Show that she was so thrilled about losing 20 pounds with the diet program that she wanted to be the company's spokeswoman.

In February, Fishel became a special correspondent for the Tyra Banks show.

man I am so sorry to here that Danielle Fishlle got Arrested

This has not been a good week for female child stars.

who eles got in Trouble this week

I was referring to Jamie Lynn Spears, who got in trouble for...getting in trouble!! :lol:

oh ok

I was shocked when I first heard this :(

I know that I was shoxked when I got The News

First I heard about it, that sucks. Glad (for the rest of the drivers out there) that she didn't kill anyone.

oh wowo when was this thats sad to hear about

This has not been a good week for female child stars.

I'm sure Danielle Fishel is not the same type of person that Britney Spears
is. You seem to take great delight in dumping on female celebrities in general,

Also, the same story on this seems to be everywhere on the internet. It
seems that Newport Beach police are not being very clear on this. It does
not say whether she was arrested when she drove drunk or was arrested
later for an earlier incident. I hope the complete truth comes out here.
