Lindsay Lohan Arrested In Long String Of Bad Choices

Lindsay Lohan was arrested after leaving the scene of an accident in New York City early Wednesday morning. According to the arrest report, Lohan clipped a pedestrian with her Porsche. The alleged victim, believed to be in his 30s was hospitalized but did not have any visible injuries at the scene.

The accident took place as Lohan was pulling into the Dream Hotel in NYC but after a friend stepped out to check for damages the crew drove into the hotel. Around 2am Lohan  was seen leaving the hotel which prompted someone to call the police. The Parent Trap star was arrested for leaving the scene and charged with a misdemeanor.

This latest arrest falls into a string of poor decisions made by Lindsay. Most recently, the actress who vowed to work on her reputation to secure more film roles left producers scrambling when she missed her day of filming with Charlie Sheen on the set of Scary Movie 5. Reportedly the 26-year old actress had walking pneumonia.

An insider revealed, “Lindsay missed every meeting she had for the film, including script reads and wardrobe meetings. Then she missed her flight to Atlanta on Sunday to shoot the movie. The producers had been getting signs Friday that she was a mess, and would not be fit to work.”

Sadly, Lohan’s family is a train wreck onto themselves with her mother Dinah displaying erratic behavior on Dr. Phil earlier this week and her father’s list is too long to name.

Lindsay Lohan’s arrest may be in violation to her probation, time will tell.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
