As if the bizarre tale of Lindsay Lohan's high-speed chase and DUI arrest weren't unbelievable enough, three men who claim they were with Lohan that night have revealed even more astonishing details to TMZ.com. On Friday, an attorney, Randall Billington, told The Associated Press that he had been retained by the three men and that they wanted the case to be resolved without the actress having to be brought to court.
The three portray an out-of-control Lohan commandeering their car and holding them hostage in the vehicle as she took two of them on a wild ride that reached speeds of 100 mph.
The three men, Dante Nigro, Jakon Sutter and Ronnie Blake, told TMZ that on Monday afternoon, they drove to Malibu, California, with the boyfriend of one of Lohan's assistants. The actress and her assistant ran into the men and, according to TMZ, Lohan's assistant later text-messaged Nigro to tell him that the "Mean Girls" star wanted to invite him to a party in Malibu that night.
Nigro said that, inside the party, everyone seemed to be having a good time and that whenever he saw Lohan, she had a drink in her hand — at one point joining him and several other people for a shot. Lohan allegedly got into a shouting match with the assistant outside the party — where the woman was in the midst of a heated argument with her boyfriend — and the assistant said, "I quit. I'm done. I don't even care."
"She looked very inebriated," Nigro said of Lohan.
