LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - "GoodFellas" actor Ray Liotta has been arrested in Los Angeles on suspicion of driving under the influence, police said on Sunday.

Liotta, 52, was detained after his sport utility vehicle struck two parked cars near his home in the upscale coastal suburb of Pacific Palisades on Saturday evening, said Los Angeles Police Dept. spokesman Mike Lopez.

After being booked on the misdemeanor charge, he posted bail, Lopez said.

Liotta, who played real-life mobster Henry Hill in Martin Scorsese's "GoodFellas," is currently in movie theaters with another gangster saga "Smokin' Aces." He won an Emmy in 2005 for a guest role on medical TV show "ER."
