'I didn't do drugs,' says actress Lindsay Lohan after bust

LOS ANGELES (AFP) - Actress Lindsay Lohan denied taking drugs on Wednesday, a day after her arrest in California for drink-driving and cocaine possession.

The 21-year-old starlet said in an emailed message to the Access Hollywood television show that cocaine found in her pocket after her arrest in Santa Monica early Tuesday did not belong to her.

"I am innocent," Lohan said. "I did not do drugs, they're not mine ... I appreciate everyone giving me my privacy."

Lohan, who was reportedly being treated at a rehabilitation center on Wednesday, was pulled over by police after a car chase involving the mother of her personal assistant.

Lohan's blood alcohol level was between 0.12 and 0.13, well above California's legal limit of 0.08. She was later charged with driving under the influence and drug possession.

The incident came just days after "Herbie Fully Loaded" and "Georgia Rule" star Lohan had completed an alcohol treatment program following her arrest in May on similar charges.

She was released on bail and faces a court hearing on August 24.
