Guilty plea for ex-Panthers cheerleader

---

Keathley was kicked off the cheerleading squad after her arrest.

A former Carolina Panthers cheerleader involved in an altercation in Tampa has agreed to a plea deal.

Tampa authorities say Angela Keathley, 26, pled guilty to misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest without violence and will participate in an intervention program for first-time offenders. They say the charges will be dropped if Keathley successfully completes the program.

Keathley, along with fellow cheerleader Victoria Thomas, 21, were arrested on Nov. 6 after getting into a fight with another woman who complained that the two were taking too long in a bathroom stall at Banana Joe's at Channelside. They were allegedly having sex in the stall.

Thomas is scheduled to appear in court next month on a battery charge.

The two women were kicked off the cheerleading squad after their arrests.
