An arrest warrant was issued for Lindsay Lohan Thursday in Beverly Hills after the actress neglected to appear at a probation hearing related to her 2007 drunk driving case. Lohan’s attorney responded to the Judge Marsha Revel’s warrant by informing the court that Lohan was stranded in France “because her passport had been lost or stolen during a trip to the Cannes film festival,” according to Reuters. Revel set bail at $100,000 and ordered Lohan to undergo random drug and alcohol tests once a week and be fitted with an alcohol monitoring bracelet upon her return. http://news-briefs.ew.com/2010/05/20/arrest-warrant-issued-for-lindsay-lohan/ Fast forward several hours: Just in to the ET News Desk: A new development in the Lindsay Lohan saga.
