Minor car wreck lands Lohan in some trouble
Copyright 2007 Houston Chronicle
You know your stint in rehab went badly if:
A. You have been cited for investigation of driving under the influence.
B. Your upcoming birthday party is being sponsored by a liquor company.
C. Your name is Lindsay Lohan.
D. All of the above.
The troubled actress was indeed cited for investigation of driving under the influence Saturday and was slightly injured when her convertible struck a curb, police said. Investigators found what they believe is cocaine at the scene, police said.
Lohan, 20, and two other people were in her Mercedes when it crashed on Sunset Boulevard around 5:30 a.m., Sgt. Mike Foxen said. It appeared Lohan 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 said Lohan was not carrying it.
Officers went to the scene after receiving a 911 call about the accident, Foxen said.
"She was cited and released because she has been admitted to a local hospital for minor injuries," he said. No one else was hurt, Foxen said.
Lohan must appear in court to answer the citation, he said.
Lohan's publicist did not immediately return an e-mail request for comment.
Lohan said in January that she had checked into a rehab center for alcohol treatment.
According to reports, the star's 21st birthday party in July will be sponsored by Svedka Vodka.
A video also surfaced recently that the purportedly shows her and her friends snorting cocaine.
