Lindsay Faces Felony Charges For Jewelry Theft

http://www2.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/Lindsay+Lohan+Giuseppe+Zanotti+Design+Beverly+cZ_1yLGG6IIl.jpgLindsay Lohan is in legal hot water once more.

TMZ.com reports the troubled actress, 24, will be charged with felony grand theft after allegedly swiping a $2,500 necklace from a Venice, Calif. jewelry store.

If convicted, Lohan faces up to three years in prison, the site reports.

For her part, Lohan claims that her stylist failed to return the "one-of-a-kind" bauble on time to Kamofie & Company, the store that lent it out to her January 22.

Though the piece has since been returned, Lohan was captured on the store's security camera wearing the necklace and is said to have been photographed with the accessory one week later.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney's office is expected to file charges as early as Monday.

The Mean Girls actress remains on probation stemming from a 2007 DUI arrest and is due in court for a progress hearing February 25. She completed a 90-day rehab stint at L.A.'s Betty Ford Center on January 3.

Lindsay Lohan Suspect In Jewelry Theft

http://www.radaronline.com/sites/radaronline.com/files/imagecache/350width/spl237002013.jpgCops have asked a LA judge for a search warrant for Lindsay Lohan’s Venice home because they suspect she has stolen a high end piece of jewelry, Radar Online has learned exclusively.

Radar Online also learned investigators told the court they have video of the 24-year-old Hollywood actress wearing the missing item!

"Lindsay is being accused of stealing high end jewelry, including a necklace,” a law enforcement source with knowledge of the situation told Radar Online.

“A search warrant was requested Tuesday at the Airport Court to search Lindsay's house for the item of jewelry in question.

“Lindsay has been photographed and there is video of her wearing the jewelry she is accused of stealing.”

If the jewelry is valued at $5,000 or more, the Mean Girls starlet, who is relishing her freedom after jail and rehab, could be charged with a felony.

It's unclear if the judge signed off on the search warrant.

Spencer Pratt -- I Was Arrested in Costa Rica

We're not vouching for Spencer Pratt, but his people tell TMZ Spencer was busted at an airport in Costa Rica for illegal possession of a firearm.

As the story goes ... Spencer was on his way out of the country when he was busted for felony possession. We're told he was booked and processed at a local jail and later released after turning over the weapons and signing a confession with the DA. Yes, we're skeptical, too.

So far, we haven't been able to confirm any of this. But we do have this bizarre statement from Spencer himself:

"As part of my spiritual cleansing I've spent the last week living alone in the jungle, reflecting on my past transgressions, and working to become a better person. I had to live off the land, and hunt to survive. As I departed the country this morning to continue my spiritual journey, I mistakenly brought my hunting weapons to the airport. It was an honest mistake, and they sent me on my way. On an unrelated note, I'm not allowed in the country anymore -- but that's because of the chicken incident."

UPDATE: As it turns out, Spencer Pratt was in fact arrested in Costa Rica yesterday. He was cited and released.

We've gotten our look at an arresting document from Costa Rica -- and even though it's in Spanish, it does have his name on it and includes words like "guilty," "charged" and "prosecution."

Heidi's name is in there to, listed as his spouse.
