Lindsay Lohan has turned herself into police to be formally arrested

 

Lindsay Lohan has been formally arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after turning herself in to police in connection with a May car crash.

Accompanied by her attorney, the 21-year-old actress surrendered at the Beverly Hills Police Department shortly after 4 pm yesterday to be fingerprinted and photographed, Officer Brian Ballieweg said.

 

Lohan's blood-alcohol level at the time of the crash was above .08, California's legal limit, said Ballieweg.

 

 

Police had discovered "a usable amount" of cocaine in Lohan's car on the night of the crash and tests later revealed she had the substance and nearly twice the legal amount of alcohol in her system, according to American magazine People.

 

She is also under arrest on suspicion of misdemeanor hit and run, he said.

 

The Mean Girls star, who was cited at the time of the crash, has been released on US$30,000 bail and a court date was scheduled for August 24.

 

A message left early Friday with her publicist was not immediately returned.

 

Lohan and two other adults were in her 2005 Mercedes SL-65 convertible when she lost control and crashed into a curb and shrubs on Sunset Boulevard on May 26, police said.

 

 

She got into a second car and was driven to a hospital in nearby Century City for treatment of minor injuries, police said. The other people in her car were not hurt.

Locked up: Lindsay Lohan poses for her police mugshot after her second arrest in five days for drink driving and cocaine posession

 

Lindsay Lohan is being held in jail after allegedly being found in possession of a unnamed quantity of cocaine when she was arrested on five charges including suspicion of drunken driving in early hours of Tuesday morning, it emerged.

The Mean Girls star, who is already facing a drunken driving charge in Beverly Hills, was pulled over near the Santa Monica Police Department early Tuesday morning after police spotted her car chasing another vehicle.

 

Police spokeswoman Calisse Lindsey said police stopped Lohan as she tried to drive out of a car park around 1:30 a.m. as she was leaving a party.

The officers smelt alcohol and gave Lohan a sobriety test, which she failed, Officer Lindsey said. The 21-year-old actress registered 0.12 and 0.13 in another test for alcohol levels, the spokeswoman said.

Officers also found a white powdery substance in Lohan's possession which tested positive for opiates during a pre-booking search.

Lohan, whose film "I Know Who Killed Me" is due to be released in the US Friday, was charged with two counts of driving under the influence, possession of a controlled substance, bringing a controlled substance into a jail facility, and driving on a suspended license, according to Officer Lindsey.

Lindsay Lohan: undergoing treatment at a mountain-side clinic in Utah

 

Lindsay Lohan is undergoing a £15,000-a-month treatment plan at a mountain-side clinic that claims to be America's most 'exclusive' - and hardcore - drug rehab centre.

The 21-year-old Hollywood wild child has checked into Cirque Lodge, overlooking Robert Redford's Sundance ski resort in Orem, Utah, one of her relatives told The Mail on Sunday.

The starlet, who is facing charges of cocaine possession, driving under the influence and driving with a suspended licence, has boasted that she cannot get into trouble because she is famous.

But at her third and latest rehab, she has is attending daily 12-step programmes, cleaning bathrooms, washing dishes and doing laundry.

She even is sharing a room with two other patients.

"Of course, I am pleased she is seeking help," the relative said.

"But I don't think this is any more what Lindsay needs than the last two places she chose. They were more like resorts than rehabs and I am afraid from what I have read about Cirque Lodge it is really more of the same. Residents are offered sports like hiking and riding.

Wellll if that's the case, why hasn't Sticktoria been tempted by it?:rolleyes:

It's just a matter of time until she wants it also....

The first time she got out of rehab, she was doing great the first couple of weeks, but then she relapsed. I like LL, but I say that if she really wants to kick the habit, she should go to a real rehab center, not those "celebrity" rehab centers.

Throw her out with the garbage I say,I'm sick of rich spoilt little brats who cannot control their lives,when other people less fortunate struggle to pay their bills week to week!

That's true, her parents screwed her up. Have you seen what her former bodyguard is saying about that? Here's the link: http://channels.isp.netscape.com/whatsnew/default.jsp?story=20070809-1417
