Lindsay Lohan Sued by Car Chase Victim
01/10/2008
Lindsay Lohan is being sued by the woman she allegedly chased prior to her arrest for driving under the influence (DUI) last July.
Tracie Rice - the mother of the actress' former assistant - claims Lindsay terrorised her in a high-speed car chase in Santa Monica and is taking legal action.
Legal papers claim Rice - who called emergency services during the pursuit - has spent ,500 on therapy, 0 on medical expenses, 5 on a chiropractor and ,000 in miscellaneous expenses incurred by her trauma.
Rice also claims she lost her job as a result of the incident, and is seeking compensation against a salary of -,000 per annum.
On July 24 2007 Lindsay allegedly embarked on a high-speed car chase, resulting in her being charged with DUI, shortly after leaving rehab for treatment for alcoholism.
She re-entered rehab the following day and insists she has been sober since her release in October.
