Lindsay Nearly Kills Paparazzo
Finally, a Lindsay Lohan post that doesn’t have anything to do with booze, drugs, or hard partying.
Just manslaughter. Actually, near-manslaughter.
Lindsay hit with her car and almost killed a photographer last night at the Hotel Gansevoort on Ninth Avenue and West 13th Street. From the New York Post:
She told cops she was driving friends in her mom’s 2004 BMW when they pulled up to the hotel at about 3 a.m. to dodge pursuing paparazzi, who then swarmed her in the valet lane.
One shutterbug, identified as Giovanni Arnold, even jumped on the hood of Lohan’s BMW, the actress told police.
Arnold’s employer, INF Photo, had a radically different take on the confrontation.
INF claims that Arnold was standing in front of Lohan’s BMW when the Mean Girl flipped it into reverse and then drive, knocking him down.
The photographer ended up at St. Vincent’s Hospital, where he was treated for minor injuries.
“She got out of the car to look at Giovanni on the ground as she’s talking to a cop, and then she’s allowed to leave,” said Dawn Leikness, INF sales director.
“The other photographers there threw a fit that she was allowed to leave. The cops then asked her friends to call her to come back, and she came back.”
Strangely enough, I find myself secretly cheering Lindsay on. It’s like hitting two birds with one stone: some bloodsucking paparazzi gets run over, Lindsay Lohan and her firecrotch go to jail. But then again, admittedly, the world will be a much more boring place without Lindsay entertaining us with her antics and paparazzi recording every single minute of it. So, my official stand is: bad, bad Lindsay. You shouldn’t run paparazzi down with your car. Spitting or throwing stuff at them would have been just fine. They like that stuff anyway. Sells more pictures.

[…] Less than a week after Lindsay Lohan hit a papparazo with her car, Keanu Reeves was apparently inspired by Lohan’s derring-do and did the same thing in Rancho Palos Verdes yesterday, running down with his Porsche a photographer who was trying to take his picture. “Apparently the pedestrian was a paparazzi who was standing in front of his car taking flash pictures,” said sheriff’s Lt. Greg Ahn of the Lomita Sheriff’s station. […]
