A Different Stroke: Actress Dana Plato, known for her role as Kimberly Drummond on the TV sitcom “Diff’rent Strokes,” refused a couple’s offer to bail her out of jail following her arrest for investigation of armed robbery in Las Vegas, authorities said Sunday. Plato, 26, said she turned down the offer by Tony and Beverly DeMarco, who put up $1,300 in cash, because she didn’t know the couple. The actress was arrested Thursday after she approached officers investigating a robbery at a video store and the clerk pointed her out as the suspect.
