Lindsay Lohan booked on suspicion of DUI

By CHRISTOPHER WEBER, Associated Press Writer 30 minutes ago

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."

OK, now .... how about a few arrests at the bar where she was seen drinking earlier?
 
this is the last nail in the coffin for my opinion of lindsay, what she did is not ok, and it's sick that she can still have the love and affection of so many if she drank and drove. she could have killed someone.
*works in a courthouse and thinks that dui's should be treated as though someone was killed*
 
i used to like lindsay because she seemed more real than a lot of other starlets. but if she's going to be no more than a common criminal/junky, i will not applaud her for it. she's no better than the lowlife scum i see at work in the courthouse on a daily basis.
 
Paris is in solitary cuz the city of LA don't want to get a lawsuit in case some bull dike
puts a scissors lock on her and she comes out and don't like boys no more.
 
I love the new math where 3d 6h equals 5 days. *snicker*

I knew something was up when my 'Free OJ' t-shirt started to tingle and hum like the batphone.

THE SYSTEM WORKS!
 
They were calling it 5 because she checked in on Sunday.. albiet at 10pm... but still ended up calling it one day. She checked out of the hotel... *cough* ... I mean 'jail' at 2 am today... so they are calling that lousy two hours a full day as well.
