CELEBRITY JUSTICE ™

Lindsay Lohan's father fired off a series of angry, threatening text messages to her fiance on the heels of the couple's huge argument that had police rushing to their apartment.

TMZ obtained the texts Michael Lohan sent Egor Tarabasov late Saturday night -- and it's pretty clear he's already spoken to LiLo about the fight. Michael says, "You threaten my daughter, touch her or if anything happens to her and you will have no where to hide mother ducked like weasel."

The messages are filled with typos -- we're guessing his anger had taken over. Michael continues ... "VOME Here And Face ME like a man and bring your daddy and mommy."

As we reported -- neighbors called police after hearing Lindsay yelling outside their apartment, accusing Egor of strangling her.

Michael comes off like a Liam Neeson wannabe in the messages, adding ... "Return her jewelry you broke phoney or I'll take it out of your ass. I WILL find you."

More troubling news about L.A. Rams RB Tre Mason -- who's been at the center of 5 different incidents involving cops in the past 4 months, TMZ Sports has learned ... and his family is extremely concerned.

The fan who tried to bum-rush Taylor Swift during a concert is going away for a long time, but not to prison ... TMZ has learned.

A judge ruled Christian Ewing incompetent to stand trial, and instead ordered him to spend up to 3 years at Patton State Hospital. The San Diego County D.A. says Ewing will remain there until he's ruled competent.

The judge also ordered medication be administered involuntarily, if necessary.

As we reported, Ewing got into a nasty brawl with security after he rushed the stage at Petco Park last year -- breaking a security guard's rib.

When and if he's ruled competent, Ewing will face 2 felony charges -- assault and battery -- for the fight.

Justin Timberlake got five to the face from a golf spectator -- and then the spectator got busted by cops ... TMZ has learned.

We obtained video of JT shot Saturday at the American Century Celebrity Pro-Am in Lake Tahoe -- and you clearly see a hand smack Justin as he's walking through the crowd. He didn't take it lightly either.

Justin turned around and yelled, "Why would you do that?" After he walked off, security for the tourney was seen talking to the slaphappy suspect.

Tournament reps saw it as a minor incident, and Justin -- who didn't have a mark on him -- didn't want to press charges ... but when Sheriff's deputies attempted to escort the man off the course things went south.

Law enforcement sources tell us he claimed he just wanted to "touch" Justin and got overzealous -- but refused to leave the premises. We're told he appeared intoxicated and became belligerent. Cops arrested him for disorderly conduct.

Always remember ...

Dr. Dre got cuffed and patted down by Sheriff's deputies outside his Malibu home after an alleged road rage dispute over a guy blocking his driveway ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to Dre tell us the motorist had pulled off PCH and stopped in front of Dre's crib. We're told Dre asked him to move, and he did ... but cussed at the mogul as he did it. Dre pulled into his driveway, but the other driver kept yelling -- so Dre pulled out his phone to record video.

Our Dre sources claim the guy said, "Here we go again, another black guy with a gun." L.A. County Sheriffs tell us the motorist called 911 to report someone pulled a gun on him.

When deputies responded they put handcuffs on the Doc and searched him. We're told they found no gun, and let him go. However, the guy insisted on making a citizen's arrest, which means he filled out a report detailing his allegations.

The Sheriff's Dept. will forward that to the District Attorney ... who will decide whether there's a case. Dre was not physically arrested by deputies.

More trouble for ex-NBA player Glen Rice Jr. -- the 25-year-old was arrested for robbery Monday morning in Georgia ... less than a year after he was shot in a bizarre gunfight at T.I.'s restaurant.

Here's what we know ... Rice was booked at 6:37 AM this morning for felony robbery, aggravated battery and possession of marijuana. He has since been released from custody.

The details surrounding the incident are unclear -- we're working on it.

By the way, Rice just completed a pre-trial intervention program stemming from the 2015 shooting incident.

As we previously reported, Rice was arrested -- after he was shot in the leg -- when cops say he was carrying 240 grams of weed and a bunch of cash. He was charged with weed and gun possession.

Unclear if this new arrest will affect that case.

Florida Georgia Line dissed law enforcement working security at their concert ... according to an Iowa Sheriff who says the band banned officers, and then came crawling back for protection.

Jones County Sheriff Greg Graver tells TMZ he was headed backstage Saturday night at the Great Jones County Fair to discuss security protocol with the band when he was stopped by a crew member and told no uniformed officers were allowed backstage, per the band.

Sheriff Graver says he was told the country duo even threatened to pull the plug on the concert if they saw any cops.

Graver says midway through the performance, he was told the band wanted a police escort out of town after the show -- but he told them he wouldn't spend "one tax dollar assisting them" ... after being disrespected.

He says the band's management scrambled for other law enforcement agencies to provide the escort ... but they also told FGL to kick rocks. They ended up leaving on their own.

A similar incident went down with Wisconsin cops last week. We've reached out to the band ... no word back.

Lindsay Lohan and fiance Egor Tarabasov got into such a heated argument, cops in London kicked down their apartment door to check on them -- and now she's leaving town ... alone.

LiLo left her home Monday morning and headed to Heathrow ... after a tumultuous weekend. Officers responded to a call early Saturday morning to "a woman in distress" at Lindsay and Egor's pad. Scotland Yard tells us ... once cops got inside they say there was no one there -- but they eventually tracked down the couple, and determined both were safe.

No arrests were made, but our Lindsay sources tell us things have been bad. We're told she's telling friends the relationship is violent at times.

While Lindsay headed to the airport alone, it's interesting to note she's still wearing her giant emerald engagement ring. She also used a shirt with an E.E. Cummings poem on it for cover from photogs.

Very artsy exit.

Peyton Manning was NOT pumped full of HGH -- or any other PED -- while recovering from neck surgery in 2011 ... so says the NFL.

The NFL launched an investigation into Manning after a man in an Al Jazeera America documentary claimed he supplied PEDs to various NFL players ... including Peyton.

Manning had denied the allegation -- but the NFL launched an investigation anyway back in January ... "led by the NFL’s security and legal teams with support from expert consultants and other professionals."

The NFL says ... "The Mannings were fully cooperative with the investigation and provided both interviews and access to all records sought by the investigators."

The conclusion -- "the NFL found no credible evidence that Peyton Manning was provided with or used HGH or other substances prohibited by the league’s policy on performance-enhancing substances."

Jeremy Renner's a deadbeat dad who refuses to pay for preschool and catch up on child support ... or so claims his ex-wife.

Sonni Pacheco says Jeremy time and again refuses to pay his half of the $1,600 monthly preschool tuition for their 3-year-old daughter, Ava. In new docs, obtained by TMZ, Sonni also says Renner's fallen behind on child support to the tune of $48,367.

As we reported ... Jeremy and Sonni struck a deal last year for Jeremy to pay $13k a month in child support as part of their divorce settlement -- and he seems to think that should be more than enough dough.

Sonni's docs include a text exchange where Jeremy says, "I'm not sure why you keep coming after more money here Sonni. I don't have the cash to give you. I'm sorry you can't figure out how to care for [Ava] with over 300k."

A member of the infamous Burglar Bunch wants a do-over ... with her name.

Courtney Ames filed docs to change her name to Courtney Shields. As for why ... she says it's to honor her stepdad. Courtney says Mr. Shields "has been in my life since I was 7 and is more of a father to me than my own father."

Now there's clearly a bonus, because Courtney Ames is notorious as a member of the burglary ring that targeted a bunch of celebs, including Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton and Orlando Bloom. Her crimes are chronicled all over Google, so the change could get her a job at Walmart for sure.

A judge will decide next month if Courtney becomes Ms. Shields.

2:40 PM PT -- Katt has been arrested for misdemeanor battery. He's currently in custody with bail set at $20,000.

6:30 PM PT -- He posted bail and has been released.

Katt Williams is currently sitting with cops as they investigate allegations the comedian punched a woman ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us cops responded Sunday morning to the Sportsmen's Lodge restaurant in Studio City after an employee alleged Katt had attacked her.

It's unclear what started the fight ... but we're told cops noticed visible minor injuries on the woman ... and she is requesting Katt be arrested for battery.

We're told Katt is currently being detained while cops investigate the situation.

Robin Thicke and Paula Patton both just learned a lesson about divorce ... don't loan and don't borrow your ex's car, because it can cost you dearly.

We're told Paula got pulled over a few days ago by the CHP for speeding and an unsafe lane change. Deputies quickly noticed the registration on the Range Rover had expired.

Now the problems. It's not Paula's Range Rover. It's Robin's. Apparently he loans it to her from time to time. We're told Robin's people just forgot to write the DMV check.

Now here's the lesson for everyone. From Paula's point of view, she's rolling the dice when she drive's someone else's car ... all sorts of things could go wrong, including a traffic stop because the owner didn't pay the piper.

What Robin did is even dicier. If Paula's erratic driving resulted in an accident, Robin would be on the hook if the victim decided to sue.

Short story ... Keep separate property separate, pay your bills, and obey the speed limit.

Although he's facing a 4-game suspension from the NFL for a missed drug test, Le'Veon Bell has got some GOOD weed news in his life ... 'cause he recently completed his probation from his 2014 marijuana arrest.

The Pittsburgh Steelers star was charged with marijuana possession and DUI in August 2014 after police pulled him over and found weed in his car. During the arrest, Bell told cops he "didn't know you could get a DUI for being high" ... and admitted to smoking a couple hours before the incident.

Bell was sentenced to a 15-month probation program in February 2015 ... and was told to stay away from drugs and alcohol for the entire sentence. He also had to complete a safe driving class and pay fines.

According to official documents, obtained by TMZ Sports, the 24-year-old running back successfully completed probation ... and the case has officially been expunged from his record.

Tom Cruise has been pulled into the middle of a police investigation surrounding a potential suicide bomber who made alarming threats to the Church of Scientology.

Cops say the man called the Church back in April asking, "Are there any bombings I can do?" The man, who ID'd himself as a Muslim, said he "liked to do suicide bombings."

According to police docs, the caller began singing, "Allah Akbar, Tom Cruise" ... the phrase some terrorists have used as they attack. He then hung up.

Beyonce's adamant she didn't rip off "Lemonade" from a film about a depressed white guy, and she says the proof is right there in her visual album ... about a proud black woman.

Beyonce just filed docs which call Matthew Fulks' lawsuit bogus ... because "Lemonade" and his 2014 short film "Palinoia" have completely different narratives.

In the docs obtained by TMZ, she says the differences couldn't be clearer -- "Lemonade" portrays "an African-American woman who progresses through stages of suspicion, denial, anger and, ultimately, reconciliation in her relationship."

On the other hand, she says "Palinoia" is about a "white man who is distressed in the wake of a failed relationship."

We broke the story ... Fulks sued Bey and her record label, saying much of her "Lemonade" trailer copied chunks of his film.
