According to the New York Daily News, actress Lindsay Lohan punched another woman, a West Palm Beach resident who works on Palm Beach as a psychic, in the face while at a Manhattan nightclub early on Thursday.
Lohan allegedly attacked Tiffany Eve Mitchell, 28, of West Palm Beach at Avenue, in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan. The Daily News reports that Lohan, 26, and Mitchell were in separate VIP sections of the nightclub when a scuffle involving other people in the club started.
Mitchell owns Palm Beach Psychic Visions on Royal Poinciana Way in Palm Beach. Prior to that, she owned another psychic business located on South Dixie Highway in West Palm Beach. According to the Palm Beach Daily News, Mitchell reads palms and tarot cards and goes by the name “Ava”.

According to the Daily News, the two women bumped into each other, then sat down. Lohan then got back up and slugged Mitchell, the Daily News said.
Mitchell didn’t require medical attention, the article said.
Earlier today, Atlanta-based morning show The Bert Show spoke with Lindsay Lohan’s father, Michael Lohan, who was contacted by police after the arrest. Michael says he wants to try and get Lindsay’s mother, Dina, to work with him to try and get their daughter help.
“There’s this pain that she’s acting out,” Michael Lohan told The Bert Show. “I imagine there’s been drinking involved. She wouldn’t be acting out by using drinking and drugs. I mean, it’s sick.”
