"It's just an allegation," Sgt. Chris Bowman said. "It's been received by our detectives."
A detective will check the validity of the complaint, Bowman said.
If the allegation had
been made last month, before Lohan was released from the strict rules of
supervised probation, it might have had more serious implications for
her. Any arrest then could become a probation violation leading to jail
time.
Lohan publicist Steve
Honig questioned why the woman waited until Saturday to go to the
sheriff department's West Hollywood Station to file a complaint.
"You have to wonder about someone who calls the media before the police," Honig said.
A judge gave Lohan, 25, a
fresh start on getting her life together two weeks ago by ending her
supervised probation. She will remain on probation for a misdemeanor
shoplifting conviction, but without the strict reporting requirements of
the two felony drunken driving convictions.
It culminated five years
of legal troubles for Lohan, which included 250 days in rehab, 35 days
in home confinement, 67 days on community service, 19 days in court and
six trips to jail.
Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner warned Lohan that avoiding future trouble could be a challenge.
"I know it's hard when
people are following you all over the place, but that's the life you
chose," Judge Sautner told Lohan, advising her to "live your life in a
more mature way, stop the nightclubbing and focus on your work."
Lohan is preparing to
portray Elizabeth Taylor in a Lifetime movie, which starts filming next
month. She also has a role in an upcoming episode of the hit Fox TV show
"Glee."
Her recent hosting job
on NBC's "Saturday Night Live" earned high ratings, and her spread in
Playboy's January issue set sales records for the magazine.
