Shock: Lindsey Lohan In DUI Car Crash; "Usable Amount" of Cocaine Discovered
The shock is that she still had a "usable amount" of cocaine on her by the end of the night.
Alas, it's fairly unlikely she was wearing clean underwear at the time:
Lindsay Lohan was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence Saturday after her convertible struck a curb, and investigators found what they believe is cocaine in the actress' car, police said.
Lohan, 20, and two other people were in her 2005 Mercedes SL-65 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 declined to say where the drug was found other than to say Lohan was not carrying it.
Lohan, who spent time at a rehabilitation center earlier this year, was driven in another car to a hospital for treatment of minor injuries, McCann said. The two other people in her car were not hurt.
One of the passengers was taken into the hospital for observation. The second passenger fled and is sought for questioning. Police released this composite sketch of the absconded passenger:
Police do not have a full name for the suspect, but they believe his "street name" is "Flappy, the West Hollywood Cokewhore-Gigolo Bird of Paradise."
