Police on Tuesday provided more details into the car crash between Lindsay Lohan and a photographer who was apparently trailing her, saying that the Mean Girls star was making a U-turn en route to a police vehicle when the celebrity shutterbug intentionally crashed into her car.

Lohan, 18, who originally was said to have escaped from the incident uninjured, in fact suffered cuts and bruises, and informed authorities that she would seek treatment on her own, police Lt. Ted Matthews tells the Associated Press.

The paparazzo, Galo Ramirez, 24, had followed Lohan in a van from Beverly Hills, Matthews said. Lohan, driving a 2005 Mercedes-Benz, spotted a police vehicle going the other direction on 3rd Street and was trying to reach it to report she was being pursued.

Ramirez then intentionally rammed the left rear of Lohan's car, Matthews said. "That obviously got the attention of the black-and-white unit," he said.

You Said

Further proof that the laws need to be changed out there regarding the paparazzi ... even though I hate L. Lohan. By the way, that doesn't even resemble the L. Lohan of 6 months ago. What in the hell is she doing??? (aside from not eating, dying her hair, and getting all her freckles zapped)

It makes sense that she wouldn't go to the hospital for treatment if she's got an eating disorder. They might want to fix her, heaven forbid. I can't believe how un-beautiful she is, now, compared to a year/six months ago!!
