Lindsay Lohan Arrested on Assault Charges After Club Punch-Up
Lindsay Lohan was arrested in the wee hours Thursday morning after she allegedly punched a woman at a NYC nightclub.
The bar brawl at club Avenue reportedly went down around 4 AM after Lindsay and Tiffany Eve Mitchell, 28, exchanged heated words, reports the New York Post. Police say Lohan and Mitchell, a Palm Beach psychic who moved to New York six months ago, were sitting separately in the VIP section when a fight broke out nearby. When they stood up to watch, the women bumped into each other and Lindsay accused her of taking photos and said something along the lines of, "Give me my space."
They both returned to their seats, but for some reason LiLo supposedly got up a few minutes later and punched Tiffany in the face. No medical attention was needed after the altercation, but Lohan was taken into custody on third degree assault charges.

The night ended badly for the carrot-topped starlet who was spotted at Justin Bieber's Madison Square Garden concert just hours before.

The actress has since been released from the 10th Precinct police station in Manhattan, but received a desk appearance ticket. If the charges stick, it could lead to a probation violation for the 'Liz and Dick" star.
The assault accusation isn’t her only legal worry this week. According to TMZ, the Santa Monica City Attorney charged the 26-year-old with three counts on Thursday related to her June car accident on the Pacific Coast Highway. The court filing includes giving false information to a peace officer, obstructing or resisting a police office and reckless driving.
Lohan's mother, Dina, released a statement asking for privacy at this time. She said, "At this time I kindly ask that you extend to my family the time we need to address my daughter's circumstances with the appropriate parties. As a mother you always love and pray for the best with all your children. Our family's bond grows deeper and stronger during the tough times and I am beyond proud of all of my children for the love and devotion they provide for each other. We are there for and stand by one another unconditionally. Many thanks to all that have expressed concern for my daughter. Your compassionate thoughts and prayers are received with my deepest gratitude."
Dad Michael tweeted on Wednesday about what his children need in order to lead healthy, productive lives. He wrote, "This is what Lindsay, and all children need! Two parents who are by their side and on the same page!" and "Put aside our differences and put our children first! Correct them when they r wrong, praise them in their success, be A PARENT, in failures!"

1) THEY NEED TO TAKE HER ACTORS LICENSE, SHE'S A DISGRACE TO THE PROFESSION.
2) THE WAY SHE PROTRADE LIZ-SHE NEEDS HER ASS KICKED, AND SO DO THE PRODUCER, AND DIRECTOR, SHE WAS NO MORE LIZ , THEN IM JOAN OF ARC, MATTER OF FACT LIZ NEEDS TO KICK HER ASS.
3) LINSEY THINKS SHE'S UNTOUCHABLE, I CANT WAIT FOR THE DAY SHE LOOSES EVERYTHING- SHE'S STRIVING SO HARD FOR IT. IT'S A SHAME WHEN YOU CHANGE THE CHANNEL ON A SO CALLED GREAT MOVIE---IT WAS **** AND SO WAS THE SO CALLED ACTRESS- CHARLIE SHEEN SHOULD OF GAVE THAT MONEY TO SOME ONE THAT NEEDED IT.
THE ONLY WAY LINSEY WILL IMPROVE, IF YOU THROW HER ASS AWAY, AND BUY A NEW ONE. LINSEY WILL BE BEST KNOWN WHEN SHE'S DEAD, WHICH WONT BE LONG.
They used to say bad press is better then no press. In this case I think all her bad press and her recent performance in Liz and ****....may have cost her more then she is will admit. Her past actions have caused her to be liability to the studios. We can all hope that she will finally realize that she needs help. She also needs to learn a little humility and not everyone what a picture of her. She is just another human being, the only difference, she has a high profile "job". No more special than my next door neighbor. Get some help and get over yourself...really tired of hearing about you..the bad press is/has made you a joke.
Bottom line, LiLo is a light-weight; when it comes to booze. . .she gets like that angry, violent friend of yours; who is very, very nice. . .till they get juiced!Leave the alcohol alone, and stay out the clubs LiLo. . . and you might be remembered for your film roles; instead of your bar 'brawls!'
Omg really? Nothing's gonna happen to this girl . If it was anyone else....just your average non famous person,,,you would have the book thrown at you! And also....if she is on probation in California, how is it that she is able to leave he state of California? Your average non famous person is not allowed to leave the state where they are on probation for! Hmmmmmm. The justice system is so far out of whack. The average person gets screwed while yet again the rich and famous get off with a hand slap. Fair? I think not!
I feel Lindsay needs professional conseling. Going 2 jail isn't going 2 help the underlying problem. I feel 4 her. Fans love 2 adore & tear down their favorite stars at the same time. They can B very critical without knowing what the stars go thru. The psychic isn't very good at her craft, or she would have seen this coming & avoided it. I pray Lindsay will remove herself from the club atmosphere. She's making it 2 easy 4 people 2 take advantage of her. She needs 2 get serious about healing herself.Taking the steps 2 take herself out of the negative limelight.i keep her in my prayers. Nich.
I would feel bad for Linday Lohan, but, at some point in everyones life, they need to take responsibility for their actions. No matter how messed up her family life is, she still knows right from wrong and the way she acts, is just ridiculous. She's suppose to be an adult not a teenager still in high school for crying out loud. It's time she grows up and stops acting like a spoiled little brat who has to have her own way. She's NOT Paris Hilton.
Lindsay Lohan will be dead by age 27. That's my "psychic" prediction.
just as Laura answered I'm stunned that a stay at home mom able to profit $6524 in four weeks on the computer. have you seen this web site www.PIE21.COM
Lindsay Lohan is truly a "train wreck" and it's not her fault, she's been used by her parents as an "ATM machine" versus a daughter since she got a record deal, her mother thinks and acts like her "sister and/or girl friend" rather than what Lindsay Lohan needs and has always needed most "A competent parent", her dad is just as bad. My heart really goes out to her, it really does, this child is going to wind up dead and the way it's played out in the press, it's like everyone is just waiting patiently for that to happen. This young woman needs help, serious help and she needs her parents to stay far away from her as in a "No contact, restraining order". DR. PHIL AN INTERVENTION IS TRULY NEEDED IN LINDSAY LOHAN'S LIFE.
