A Michigan man who accepted an Emmy won by “Hill Street Blues” actress Betty Thomas was fined $175 and placed on six months’ probation today after pleading no contest to interfering with an event, a local infraction.

The sentence was handed down against Barry Bremen, 38, by Pasadena Municipal Judge Phillip J. Argento. Bremen appeared on stage at Pasadena Civic Auditorium Sept. 22 and said he was accepting the award for Thomas, claiming she was absent. Moments later, Thomas made it to the stage to receive her award.
