Lindsay Lohan charged with four crimes in one day

The tabloid headliner's latest arrest comes after punching a woman at a nightclub in New York City

Lindsay Lohan, the "Artist of many things.. :),"  has been arrested in New York City following the assault of a West Palm Beach woman at a nightclub. A source told TMZ that Lohan was caught in a scuffle with another woman, after saying something that sounded like "Give me my space." According to the source, the two separated but then Lohan allegedly came back to punch the woman in the face.

Police have also charged Lohan with three other crimes today, after her now-infamous Porsche rammed into an 18-wheeler on Pacific Coast Highway in June. Lohan has been charged with reckless driving, giving false information to an officer and obstruction.

The news comes only days after Lohan's most recent flop aired -- "Liz and Dick," Lifetime's "ridiculous" retelling of the Elizabeth Taylor-Richard Burton romance. But at this point, the deficiencies in Lohan's personal life and professional career draw so many uncanny parallels that it's hard to laugh. Since 2007, Lohan has been racking up arrests, lawsuits and allegations (by Us Weekly's count, today's arrest makes her 7th).
