Lindsay Lohan is claiming innocence in her latest arrest.

The 21-year-old actress was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of driving under the influence and possession of cocaine, but tells Access Hollywood‘s Billy Bush: “Yes. I am innocent… did not do drugs they’re not mine.”

She added: “I appreciate everyone giving me my privacy.”

Lohan was arrested by Santa Monica Police early Tuesday morning on suspicion of drunk driving at around 1:30 a.m. According to reports, police received a 911 call from someone claiming they were being chased by another vehicle.

Police found Lohan arguing with the mother of her former assistant, Tarin, in the parking lot of Santa Monica’s Civic Auditorium.

Though Lohan initially refused to take a Breathalyzer test, she submitted to other field sobriety tests, which she failed. Officers also found cocaine in one of Lohan’s pants pockets during a search.

She was taken to jail where her blood-alcohol level registered between .12 and .13 (the legal limit is .08). Lohan was booked on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol, driving on a suspended license, possession of cocaine and transport of a narcotic.

Lohan also told Bush, “I was almost hit by my assistant Tarin’s mom.”

In a press conference held Tuesday morning, Lt. Alex Padilla told reporters that the mother of Lohan’s personal assistant was driving the vehicle being chased by Lohan.

“Just prior to the chase-I’m not exactly sure how long prior-the personal assistant had quit,” Padilla said.

Lohan was released shortly before 6:30 a.m. on $25,000 bail.

This was Lohan’s second arrest for an alleged DUI in less than two months.
