Lohan Allegedly Coked Up During Car Crash

Posted Jun 28th 2007 2:03PM by TMZ Staff

Lindsay Lohan was allegedly drunk and had cocaine in her system during an early morning smash-up in Beverly Hills on Memorial Day weekend.

According to multiple law enforcement sources, toxicology reports conclude that Lohan, 20, had "nearly twice the legal limit" of alcohol and traces of blow in her bloodstream when she crashed her 2005 Mercedes SL-65 convertible into a curb on Sunset Blvd. around 5:30 AM on May 26. In California, drivers with a .08 or higher are legally drunk.

Police tell TMZ Lohan and two other adults were in the car at the time of the accident. After the crash, she was taken to a local hospital and treated for minor injuries, then placed under arrest on suspicion of DUI. Cops later said they found a "usable amount" of cocaine in the car.

We're told that the Beverly Hills Police Dept. could present the case to the Los Angeles D.A. in the next few days.

Lohan's lawyer, Blair Berk, told TMZ, "It's highly inappropriate for me to discuss a pending case." Berk added, "It is extremely unprofessional for law enforcement to do it."

61. She is going to kill herself or someone else. If I were her mother I would be trying to help her, not trying to start a reality show on E. This will not turn out good, something bad is going to happen.

63. What the heck is wrong with these people? They have the world at their fingertips and they are screwing it up for what? Drugs and Alcohol. A cheap high. It is so very sad. I am so dissappointed in Lindsey. I loved her in Parent Trap. She was so cute. And look at her now., Yeah she should do time. Because she needs to know that she can't get away with things like this just because of who she is. And if she keeps doing this, Who she is, is going to be NOBODY... Wise up stars. Before you are like a shooting star, once brightly shining and beautiful but all too soon gone and forgotten....

69. Ya know...most you people need to get a life of your own. So what if Lindsay parties? So did I at 20 yrs old. And I bet most of y'all did, too. You never screwed up at work? The only difference is that we didn't have a bunch of idiots with cameras chasing us around every minute of every day. Go ahead and walk around any block in any city...wanna take a guess at how many kids are partying?? We all had to learn to grow up somewhere along the line - it 's just that most of us don't do it in the public eye. Yeah, maybe it's too bad and all, but why must the ignorant poke fun? Live & let live!

70. Im guessing they knew what the reports would say is the reason why she is extending her stay in rehab. Its a way to manipulate the courts to giving her an easy sentence and jail time like Paris....But I dont think they will let her get away with it!

71. OK. She is UNDER 21. Getting served. Both her and the Bars should be held responsible. Bust both. Nail these clubs to the wall. That is where they score everything anyway. How have they not been busted? I say they grease the palms of some one out there in LA LA Land.

Second, and most severe, the Cocaine. It was in her system and at the scene. She needs to be scared straight. I hate to say this but she needs to do some time. How much can they get away with out there.

My opinion though is that she will get off with a fine maybe some probation because the way it went down. She did leave the scene of an accident though. And she did go directly to rehab. They like that stuff.

74. Thank You # 14 Snarksnarksnark THERE SHOULD BE NO TRACES OF ALCOHOL IN LOHAN.... You are so right. Now what Hollywood Hotspot is getting shut down? And how long before the media circus from her trial and hopeful conviction?

75. SO, since Paris "said" she only had ONE drink with her DUI at .08, does that mean her whorey friend Lindsay only had TWO drinks since she had doubled the legal limit???? What's the judicial system coming to wanting to punish such sweet, innocent girls??? Shouldn't they be able to $$$ their way out of such petty troubles?? Poor Lindsay! And I bet the COKE only registered in her system because it touched her hands, as she was telling the drug pusher "No"!
