Lindsay Lohan may be facing jail yet again.
LiLo allegedly lied to Santa Monica police after her car crash last Friday, telling officers that her assistant was driving Lohan's Porsche when it slammed into the back of a truck, but the assistant said Lohan was driving, according to TMZ.com.
Police are including the alleged Lohan lie in an official report, the gossip website reported. If it turns out that Lohan lied, her informal probation may be revoked and she could potentially face a jail sentence. Her probation, which only mandates that she follow all laws for the two and a half years, stems from her necklace-shoplifting case.
The crash, in which Lohan's Porsche slammed into the back of a dump truck while she was on her way to the set of her film "Liz & Dick," is still under investigation, but Lohan is reportedly blaming fault brakes.
Lohan, 26, is forging ahead with a comeback after a seemingly endless string of legal and personal troubles since 2007, including stints in jail, rehab and court. She was released in March from almost five years of formal probation stemming from a 2007 drunken driving and cocaine possession arrest.
She is currently playing late screen legend Elizabeth Taylor for a Lifetime TV movie "Liz & Dick," based on Taylor's love affair with actor Richard Burton.
Lohan's rep declined to comment on the report.
