In a newly released 911 call, a worker the Betty Ford Center says she ordered Lindsay Lohan to pack her bags and leave the facility after the actress hit her during a December argument.
The Associated Press reports that the six-minute call started with a chaotic exchange between Lohan and the worker, Dawn Holland, as they argued over control of the phone at the rehab center in Palm Desert, CA.
Lohan and Holland take turns talking with the dispatcher, with the worker at one point saying: "I have a problem because Lindsay Lohan pushed me and hit me with the phone while I was trying to talk to you." Holland is heard on the call telling the actress: "Lindsay, you need to pack your (expletive). Cause now I'm getting ready to file charges on you."
At one point during the call, Lohan tells the dispatcher she had never seen Holland before. "She's freaking me out," Lohan said, when she was able to get on the phone.
The December 12 incident prompted an investigation by the Riverside County Sheriff's Department, but prosecutors announced last week they had not found sufficient evidence to file any charges. Holland was later fired by the center after giving an on-camera interview to celebrity website TMZ.
When the dispatcher asks whether Lohan tried to sneak out of the facility, she replies: "Oh yes, she got busted trying to hop back over the fence."
Lohan still faces a felony grand theft charge for allegedly taking a $2,500 necklace from a Venice, CA jewelry store shortly after she was released from the Betty Ford Center. The actress is due back in court for that case on April 22.
