Bad news for Lindsay Lohan: while she’s hiding out in a Utah rehab clinic, lawsuits are piling up against her. Today, a woman filed suit against Lindsay for assault and negligence after the actress reportedly chased her while drunk last month.

“What Miss Lohan did that night was extremely dangerous and reprehensible,” Tracie Rice, the woman who filed the suit, said in statement, according to the Associated Press. “Someone could easily have been killed or seriously hurt because of her irresponsible decisions that evening.”

Rice’s attorney, Paul Hoffman tells People: “My client, Tracie Rice, thought she was going to die that night, and wants Ms. Lohan to be held accountable because Lohan’s behavior was so extreme and outrageous. Ms. Rice is still traumatized from the incident.”

Hoffman says they’re suing for an undisclosed amount. No hearing date has been selected yet.

Lohan’s rep was not immediately available for comment.

The car Lindsay was chasing was driven by Michelle Peck, the mother of Lindsay’s personal assistant, Tarin, who quit earlier that evening. Tracie Rice was a passenger in Peck’s car during the chase.
