Claim Lindsay Lohan Commandeered Their Car on Night of DUI Arrest
7/28/07
Three men are claiming troubled star Lindsay Lohan commandeered their
car the night she was arrested for driving under the influence.
The men, Dante Nigro, Jakon Sutter and Ronnie Blake claim they had been
partying on Monday night (23Jul07) in Malibu with Lohan and her assistant
Tari Grahame and her boyfriend.
They allege Lohan was drinking heavily - despite wearing an
alcohol-detecting ankle bracelet. They tell website TMZ Lohan and Grahame
rowed at the party; Graham told the actress she was quitting and drove
off. Lohan is then described jumping into the car - owned by Nigro - and
chasing Grahame, with Nigro, Sutter and Blake in the passenger seats of
the 'hijacked' vehicle.
Blake claims he jumped out of the car and Lohan ran over his foot. The
other two men stayed in the car and attempted to reason with Lohan - who
was driving at high speed - but she threatened them saying "If you
touch me I'll sue you"
and adding "I can't get in trouble. I'm a celebrity. I can do
whatever the f**k I want."
They tell the website Lohan lost Grahame mid-pursuit, so the starlet
drove to her mother's house in Santa Monica - to discover her assistant's
therapist mum Michelle Peck arriving at home. Peck reportedly panicked
when she saw the car behind her and drove off - only for Lohan to give
chase to her.
Peck called police and the two cars finally stopped at a parking lot,
where cops apprehended Lohan and she failed a sobriety test.
Nigro alleges that the star tried to claim he had been driving. He
believes he heard her say, "I wasn't driving. The black kid was
driving."
