Lindsay Lohan, under arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence,
has turned herself in to police in connection with a Memorial Day weekend
car crash.

Accompanied by her attorney, the 21-year-old actress surrendered at the
Beverly Hills Police Department shortly after 4 p.m. Thursday to be
fingerprinted and photographed, Officer Brian Ballieweg said.

Lohan's blood-alcohol level at the time of the crash was above .08,
California's legal limit, said Ballieweg, who did not disclose how high
it was. She is also under arrest on suspicion of misdemeanor hit and run,
he said.

Lohan was released on her own recognizance. A court date was scheduled
for August 24.

A message left early Friday with her publicist was not immediately
returned.

The surrender was first reported by TV's "The Insider."

Lohan and two other adults were in her 2005 Mercedes SL-65 convertible
when she lost control and crashed into a curb and shrubs on Sunset
Boulevard on May 26, police said.

Lohan got into a second car and was driven to a hospital in nearby
Century City for treatment of minor injuries, police said. The other
people in her car were not hurt.

Officers received a 911 call about the accident and traced her to the
hospital. Police said at the time she had been arrested for investigation
of driving under the influence, though it wasn't formal until Thursday.

Last week, Lohan checked out of a rehabilitation center after a stay of
more than six weeks. It was her second stint in rehab this year. She said
in January she had checked into rehab for substance abuse treatment.
