LINDSAY LOHAN WAS arrested today after police said she hit a woman during an argument at a New York City nightclub.
The Mean Girls star was arrested at 4am and charged with third-degree assault.
She left a police precinct nearly four hours later with a black jacket pulled over her head.
She allegedly got into the spat with another woman at Club Avenue, in Manhattan’s Chelsea section after attending a Justin Bieber concert at Madison Square Garden. She struck the woman in face with her hand, police said. The woman did not require medical attention.
The arrest is Lohan’s latest brush with law enforcement in New York City.
She was involved in a NYPD investigation in September after alleging a man had assaulted her in a New York hotel, but charges against the man were later dropped.
Also in September, the actress was accused of clipping a man with her car outside another Manhattan nightclub, but prosecutors chose not to move ahead with charges.
In October, police were called to her childhood home on Long Island after a report of fight between her and her mother. An investigation revealed “no criminality.”
The actress was also involved in a car accident in California this summer that sent her and an assistant to a hospital, but didn’t result in serious injuries for anyone. The accident remains under investigation.
In May, she was cleared of allegations that she struck a Hollywood nightclub manager with her car.
Lohan remains on informal probation for taking a necklace from a jewelry store without permission last year. That means she doesn’t have to check in with a judge or probation officer but could face a jail term if arrested again.
Her latest film Liz & Dick, in which she portrays screen icon Elizabeth Taylor, premiered on the Lifetime channel on Sunday.
