Lindsay Lohan's purse stolen in Hawaii, returned minus $10,000

(CBS) - Sounds like Lindsay Lohan had a rough weekend. The starlet reportedly had her $5,000 Chanel purse snatched Saturday night in Hawaii, only for it to be returned missing nearly $10,000 in cash.

According to TMZ, Lohan left the purse in her car while at a house party in Hawaii. The purse was reportedly returned by a local the next day still containing the actress' passport and probation documents.

TMZ reports Lohan, worried about getting stuck in Hawaii and missing her court date Wednesday in L.A., was so relieved at the return of the documents she didn't ask questions of the person who returned it and overlooked the missing money.

-----

Lohan, who recently got into trouble for missing scheduled community service appointments, has been putting in her court-ordered hours of service at the L.A. County coroner's office and is now actually ahead of schedule, the LA Times reports.

That was the first thing I was told when I was there. Do NOT leave anything in plain sight in your car.

She must have left it unlocked or something. No mention of a broken window; I also wouldn't trust her memory

But yes, please don't leave valuables in your car; I've seen it happen more than once.

lock the car?

Where I live (Santa Fe) apparently most people do not lock their car and leave all sorts of valuables in plain sight on the seat. I never fail to be amazed at the stupidity of most people.

Maybe?


She uses it as ID because she wouldn't have a Driver's License?

State issued ID seems like much less of a pain in the ass than a passport though.
