David Hasselhoff's Ex-Wife Booked for Hit-and-Run | David Hasselhoff
David Hasselhoff's ex-wife Pamela Bach surrendered Monday to a Van Nuys, Calif., jail to be booked for a misdemeanor hit-and-run charge. She was released on her own recognizance shortly thereafter.

In January, Bach, 44, allegedly crashed into 26-year-old Nicole Valdez's car in the San Fernando Valley and fled the scene. Valdez says damages total $1,377.

In June, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge ordered Bach to turn herself in because she was not properly booked when the criminal charges were filed.

Bach, who has pleaded not guilty, is ordered to appear for a hearing Tuesday and faces up to six months in jail if convicted.

Hasselhoff, 55, was awarded primary custody of the former couple's two children last June. The decision marked a turnaround for the actor, who had been blocked temporarily from seeing Taylor-Ann, 17, and Hayley, 14, after a drunken video of him surfaced.

Earlier this month, Bach agreed to move out of their previously shared family home. The ex-couple will face off in a trial beginning Jan. 28 to settle their finances.
