Officials Investigate If Lohan Was Served Drinks Illegally.


Officials Investigate If Lohan Was Served Drinks Illegally.... California officials are investigating whether there is any evidence Lindsay Lohan was illegally served alcohol before she was arrested for driving under the influence on Saturday (26May07). The 20-year-old, who police picked up after she crashed her Mercedes in Beverly Hills, is under the U.S. state's legal drinking age of 21. Before her accident, Lohan was spotted partying in West Hollywood nightclub Les Deux. Website Tmz.com claims to have video footage of the actress leaving the venue at around 3.30am on Saturday morning - an hour and a half after closing time. John Carr, a spokesperson for California's Department Of Alcoholic Beverage Control (Abc), has confirmed his agency is investigating whether there is evidence Lohan and other youths were served alcohol illegally, and whether they were served drinks after hours. Les Deux has issued the following statement: "We have and will continue to work closely with the Abc to make sure alcohol is consumed by responsible people of the legal drinking age, in a responsible manner.

Lindsay had dinner at Les Deux that night and waited for friends to pack up the DJ supplies, thus leaving Les Deux after closing. "Because of the enormous paparazzi presence outside of Les Deux that night, we allowed her to stay late and wait for her friends. She was not drinking at Les Deux, and left driven by her driver." Lohan checked into the Promises clinic in Malibu on Monday (28May07). Earlier this year (07), she received treatment at the Wonderland Center rehab facility in Hollywood.
