Lindsay Lohan was arrested in the early hours of Saturday morning for driving under the influence and will face a drugs investigation.
The 20-year-old actress, who has gone off the rails in recent months since completing a rehabilitation programme for alcoholism, hit the kerb with her Mercedes on Sunset Boulevard in California after a night out at trendy nightspot Les Deux. She sustained minor upper chest injuries and was treated in hospital.
Police confirmed that a "usable" substance reported to be cocaine was found in the vehicle. A recent video posted on the internet shows Lohan apparently using cocaine in the toilets of a nightclub. The young actress has been seen out drinking again since she entered rehab, and rumours of drug abuse have also persisted.
California police confirmed that Lohan was charged with a misdemeanour, but could face other charges. Could she be joining Paris Hilton behind bars? |
