Jill Quigg (right), who received acclaim for her performance as the tough-talking Dottie in Ben Affleck's directorial debut "Gone Baby Gone" in 2007, was arrested Friday (Oct. 15) in Quincy, a town south of Boston, after she and another man allegedly broke into a neighbor's apartment and then tried to blame it on an black man, reports Fox News.

Lt. Jack Sullivan told Fox News that Quigg and Georgios Keskinidis were stopped near the apartment and told the police that a black man had broken into it and was running off with the flat screen TV and a new computer printer. Quigg and Keskinidis continued the lie when they said they chased the man as he dropped the items and got into a getaway car.

Other witnesses identified Quigg and Keskinidis as the ones leaving the scene of the crime. The two pleaded not guilty to breaking and entering, larceny and wanton desturction of property in court Monday (Oct. 18). Both were released on their own recognizance.

"Gone Baby Gone" is Quigg's only film role to date.
