Lindsay Lohan Arrested – another DUI & drug charge

According to CNN, Lindsay Lohan has had a relapse and has not only been drinking and doing drugs, but was again caught and charged by the police.

According to the police report, Lindsay Lohan was in her car chasing another car, driven by the mother of her personal assistant (who had quit that day). The mother called the police.

Lindsay Lohan was then found to have a blood alcohol limit over the legal amount, and cocaine was found in her car. She was taken into custody – arrested – her actual mug shot is featured to the left. If convicted of either DUI, Lindsay Lohan will likely face jail time for the repeated issues.

Five days after being booked in connection with a May drunken driving charge, actress Lindsay Lohan was arrested early Tuesday morning on five charges — including drunken driving and possession of a controlled substance, Santa Monica police told CNN.

Police spokeswoman Calisse Lindsey said police got a call at 1:34 a.m. PT that a vehicle was chasing another vehicle in a parking lot in Santa Monica. When officers arrived, they found Lohan driving the vehicle that was chasing the other, the spokeswoman said.

The officers smelled alcohol and administered a field sobriety test, which Lohan failed, Lindsey said.

When taken to the police station, the 21-year-old actress registered 0.12 and 0.13 in blood tests for alcohol levels, the spokeswoman said. In California, the legal limit is 0.08, according to the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles.

Officers also found a white powdery substance in Lohan’s possession which was determined to be cocaine, Lindsey said.

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

She was released on $25,000 bail Tuesday morning, according to The Associated Press.

Lohan’s attorney, Blair Berk, issued the following statement Tuesday: "Addiction is a terrible and vicious disease. Since Lindsay transitioned to outpatient care, she has been monitored on a SCRAM bracelet and tested daily in order to support her sobriety. Throughout this period, I have received timely and accurate reports from the testing companies. Unfortunately, late yesterday I was informed that Lindsay had relapsed. The bracelet has now been removed. She is safe, out of custody and presently receiving medical care."…

The actress is scheduled to be back in the Beverly Hills Courthouse on August 24 to face the charges there.

According to TMZ, Lindsay Lohan has checked into rehab. Not Promises – she is at an undisclosed location.

Sorry this was a bit tardy, I am currently travelling.

    i think lindsay needs a slap of reality. yes she went to rehab, but it comes off as more of a spa. what this girl needs now is some tough love. she has nobody telling her “don’t do this” or “there are severe consequences for your actions” and now she has found herself in this situation. lindsay lives her life to the limit so its no suprise that things had to get really bad before she may stop. this girl is an addict and needs more than a ankle braclet to help her…she needs to step away from hollywood. no parties. no work.

    if she is as serious about getting healthy and becoming a respected actor that she needs to take some serious down time, away from LA, away from the spotlight, and away from the lifestyle she leads.

    The mugshot is indeed heartbreaking.
    She is destroying her career and everything she worked so hard for if she keeps on doing like this( not to mention her life).
    This needs drastic measurements: Jailtime I’m affraid.
    It is bad when fans want her to go to jail to come to her sences.
    Still love her.

    … :’( :’( :’(” :’(””’

    Lindsay — I am SO sorry — I wish I knew what we could do to help — what is it, Lindsay — what can we do? What HAPPENED between 9:20 last night and then — what? Wasn’t that you who said “Thank you to the guy above me for saying that?”

    I don’t think we understand the pain you have inside — please help us to know what it is you need …

    We love you Lindsay — please, please get better — I don’t care if you never act again — just be happy — find something in your life that YOU enjoy — and most of all — PLEASE find the Love of Him who Loves you — more than anyone ever can — forever.

    Lindsay — just know the prayers of many who love you very much are with you right now. You are certainly not the only person who has struggled with this. But you are certainly the most beautiful person I have ever known who is struggling — so hard — stay with us Lindsay — He has a purpose for your life — a very beautiful purpose — maybe one that you don’t even know yet — your life is in His hands — not cast in stone. You must trust Him — He Loves you so much.

    As ALWAYS! your (my-heart-and-HIS-Heart-are-breaking-with-your-heart-again) Affectionate Fan —

    ALWAYS, Lindsay — Always !!! :’-)

    Oh no…. It is one thing that she has relapsed – that only involves herself, but driving at the same time is unforgiveable, she could have injured other innocent people. I’m sorry to say that she deserves to be punished, though I hope they will go easy on her. On the other hand: Her charges are worse than Paris Hilton’s…. :-(

  12. By No Excuses

    BTW she was booked on felony possession so this is very serious.

    Lindsay take care of yourself! And hope you don’t plow into another Jorge Cruz Jr.

  13. By Surprise!

    No… if we care about her we would expect more from her. We would not enable her to destroy herself and possibly others as she could have plowed into another Jorge Cruz Jr. a la Rebecca Gayheart.

    No… what we need to do is watch her and not believe one word she says. That is the only way she will change. That and going to jail. Sadly :(

  14. By lola

    i thought that she was doing good and all! but damn!

    now shes just a you no what, she can never change!

  15. By Bowman

    I agree with you Aimee. I’m too devastated to say anything more right now.

  16. By Aimee

    I dont know what too say…its just so so sad. Her mugshot is heartbreaking. She’s such a beautiful and talented person. I thought she was back on top of things and ready to prove everybody wrong but i guess she still has her demons. This is one of those times when we all need to rally around her and give her all the support she needs…she doesnt deserve to be labelled as a criminal because she is obviously ill and needs real help. I wish everyone would just leave her alone so she can concentrate on her own well being. Anyway.. Get well soon lindsay, your fans love you!
