And what a surprise..the police found 'a usable amount of cocaine' in her possession.The arrest occurred shortly after 5:30am on Saturday after Lohan crashed her 2005 Mercedes SL-65 convertible into a curb and a shrub on Sunset Boulevard. Her car suffered "major damage," and Lohan was hospitalized for minor chest injuries according to police.
Two other people were in the car with Lohan at the time of the accident but they were not injured.
Police were called by a witness and responded three minutes after the call, but by that time Lohan, her companions and the car had fled the scene.
Lohan was later found by police at the Century City Hospital and her Mercedes at condominium complex. The vehicle was towed at 6:30 a.m. Police are keeping mum on how they know Lohan was driving, but say they're "confident" that she was.
A press conference was held Saturday and Lt. Mitch McCann, media relations officer for Beverly Hills police department said, "A usable amount of an illegal narcotic tentatively identified as cocaine was recovered and booked."
Police would not say where they found the cocaine or what Lohan's BAC was.
"She was charged with a misdemeanor," said McCann. "There is a potential for additional charges." Lindsay was seen out at Les Deux before the crash. She showed up just after 11PM and was smoking, dancing and partying the night away.
Obviously Lindsay learned nothing from the incident. X17 photographers caught her out with Samantha Ronson around 4AM this morning, completely funked up. Check out the pics.
Meanwhile, Lindsay's father, Michael Lohan says that her arrest may be a blessing in disguise. He thinks she is hanging out with the wrong crowd and that she needs to reconnect with family and find God.
Lohan's tentative arraignment date is Aug. 24.
