Lindsay Lohan booked on suspicion of DUI By CHRISTOPHER WEBER, Associated Press Writer Mon May 28, 9:10 AM ET BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - Lindsay Lohan was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence Saturday after her convertible struck a curb, and investigators found what they believe is cocaine at the scene, police said. Lohan, 20, and two other people were in her 2005 Mercedes SL-65 when it crashed on Sunset Boulevard around 5:30 a.m., Sgt. Mike Foxen said. It appeared the actress was speeding, Lt. Mitch McCann said at an afternoon news conference. Officers at the scene found a "usable amount" of a drug tentatively identified as cocaine, McCann said. He declined to say where the drug was found other than to say Lohan was not carrying it. Lohan, who spent time at a rehabilitation center earlier this year, was driven in another car to a hospital for treatment of minor injuries, McCann said. The two other people in her car were not hurt. Officers received a 911 call about the accident and arrested Lohan at the hospital for investigation of misdemeanor driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, McCann said. She was released from custody because she was admitted to the hospital, police said. McCann declined to comment on Lohan's blood-alcohol level. He said the case will be presented to the District Attorney's Office where the actress could face more charges, including felonies. Her tentative arraignment date is Aug. 24. The crash was Lohan's third accident in about two years. In October 2005, Lohan and a passenger received minor injuries when her convertible hit a van in West Hollywood. Authorities said the van driver, who also received minor injuries, was at fault. Months earlier, Lohan collided with a minivan when she made a U-turn as the van, carrying paparazzi, followed her from a Los Angeles restaurant. A photographer was arrested for investigation of assault with a deadly weapon but prosecutors declined to charge him. That crash was credited with prompting Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to sign a law that set steep financial penalties for paparazzi who commit assaults while trying to obtain celebrity photos. Lohan publicist Leslie Sloane Zelnik did not immediately return an e-mail requesting comment. Lohan said in January that she had checked into a rehabilitation center for substance abuse treatment. Her publicist confirmed in December that the actress was attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. Lohan told Allure magazine during an interview for its May issue that she decided to enter the secluded Wonderland Center at the suggestion of her therapist. "It's so weird that I went to rehab. I always said I would die before I went to rehab," Lohan told the publication. Lohan's latest movie, "Georgia Rule," is in theaters now. The actress' other screen credits include "Mean Girls," "Bobby," "A Prairie Home Companion" and "Freaky Friday." http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070528/ap_en_mo/people_lohan_29;_ylt=Aow4ZJkYDWoZxvC4.Onvs29kM3wV <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/LnqFeaNSh24"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/LnqFeaNSh24" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
I saw this the other day and thought about posting it, but it happens so much with these stupid starlets I decided not to.
she's probably gonna kill herself or OD on something when she's what 26 or whatever that magic number is. im so tired of this stupid biotch shes been in like 5 movies and sucked in all of em
Seriously bro, who are these guys she hangs with bro, seriously. . . bro. The Governator came down on photogs for causing accidents, I wonder if he'll zone in on these trendy night clubs where underage starletts are allowed to drink. I don't mean to revel in others misery, but since this chick won't straighten herself out, I hope she keeps messing up like this until she too has to spend a couple of weeks in jail.
Anyone see SNL when she hosted? In the opening monologue she was visited by a version of herself in 5 yrs, as a coked out w****. Turns out that thing was so spot on. As a backstory, I read that Tina Fey and Lorne Michaels actually warned her that she was pushing it in her personal life during the week of rehearsal. I suspect that's partially why they made that opening. Sometimes people will never get the message until they hit rock bottom.
cant fathom how people read and watch those enertainment shows and magazines. dont understand how people can chase them around with cameras. all sooo dumb

Mneh.. things kinda got bland after Lindsay got all skinny and druggy. She was cute when she still had meat. I don't know why people would care about such useless news? So a star got into an accident or got arrested from a DUI. What's new, it's overplayed. However, I would like to know why our gas prices are going up so rapidly even before the summer. Well at least what the gov't is doing to make the pain better. Other news such as what's really happening with the 'war' overseas. Can't these reporters report on more important things?? ..and who watches these silly celebrity news anyways??
