Lindsay Lohan has been charged on suspicion of DUI (driving under the influence), possession of cocaine and driving with a suspended licence, just a week after checking out of rehab.
The 21-year-old actress - who recently completed a 45-day programme for alcoholism - was stopped by police in Santa Monica, California, at around 2.15am on Tuesday (24.07.07).
Police were responding to a call about a car chase involving two vehicles.
Officers have confirmed that Lindsay was driving with two companions in the pursuing car.
The star - who is currently facing a separate DUI charge after crashing her car in Beverly Hills in May - was taken to a Santa Monica jail after failing a sobriety test.
Another search at the station found cocaine in her trouser pocket, and her breath test recorded a blood alcohol level of between .1.2 and .1.3.
Lindsay was subsequently charged with the three offences.
The actress' bail was set at $25,000 and she left the station at around 9am on Tuesday morning.
The news comes just days after the star - who has been wearing an alcohol-monitoring ankle device since leaving rehab - surrendered herself to Beverly Hills police and was formally booked for DUI following her car crash in May.
Lindsay arrived at the station with her lawyer last Thursday (19.07.07) and was released on $30,000 bail an hour later. A court date was set for August 24. |
