The "Liz & Dick" star allegedly punched a woman in the face at the Manhattan nightclub Avenue at 4 a.m. on Thursday morning, a spokesperson for the NYPD confirms. The 26-year-old actress was arrested and charged with assault. She was later released after being issued a desk appearance ticket for a future unspecified date.
The woman she allegedly hit was not expected to face charges, reports say.
A rep for Lindsay has not yet responded to requests for comment.
Lindsay just can’t seem to stay out of trouble. Still on probation for a 2011 necklace theft, she has had three other run-ins with police in New York since September. They include a hit and run (charges were later dropped), a fight with a man in her hotel room (charges against him were later dropped), and a domestic dispute with her mother, Dina Lohan, in which Lindsay alleged that the 50-year-old was high on cocaine. Lindsay later said she lied about her mother's drug use.
Back in Los Angeles, Lindsay crashed her rented Porsche into a truck in June, then allegedly lied to police saying she wasn’t driving. Charges are still pending on that case, but she reportedly will have her probation revoked.
There have been other incidents as well this year that didn’t involve police, including an unpaid hotel bill in the amount of $46,350 at Chateau Marmont (it was later settled), and a $140,203 tax lien.
Lindsay keeps saying that she wants people to focus on her acting career, not her drama-filled personal life, but she's not giving us much of a choice. She made one TV movie this year (which was largely panned) and has had at least five police run-ins. (We won’t even get into the time paramedics were called to her hotel room after they found her "unresponsive.")
Perhaps one day she'll save the drama for work – but we just can't see that happening anytime soon.
