Lindsay Lohan in Court with her attorney

Lindsay Lohan’s probation may very well be threatened by an accusation that she hit a man with her car outside a Hollywood club early Wednesday morning, if the individual files a police report and she is actually found to have fled the scene.

The incident occurred shortly before 1 a.m. at a parking lot in the 6500 block of Hollywood Boulevard, said Officer Norma Eisenman. Lohan was surrounded by paparazzi and was trying to negotiate a U-turn in a parking area when her car allegedly brushed the leg of the man, reportedly a manager in a nearby club.

The actress left the location but Eisenman said the department at this time doesn’t consider it a hit-and-run.

“We aren’t commenting until we’ve gathered all the facts,” Steve Honig, a spokesman for Lohan, said Wednesday.

Legal experts stated that police can only initiate a probe if the victim files a complaint.

“A hit-and-run is a violation of her probation,” they said. “She was ordered to obey all laws. Leaving the scene of an accident is a violation of Vehicle Code section 20002,” they said

According to the LAPD, the guy called police, who took down the information but didn’t make an official report because at that point he wasn’t deemed to be injured.

Officers did not contact Lohan, Eisenman said.

Lohan continues to be on probation since a 2007 conviction for driving under the influence. Since that time she has been found guilty of shoplifting and is also currently on probation for both offenses.

The 25-year-old actress has been sent to jail several times for violating the terms of probation. But in the last few months under a strict regime of community service at the morgue and counseling, a judge has praised her behavior and may take her off supervised probation later this month.
