Michael Lohan Arrested Again, Tries to Flee Cops by Jumping Off Balcony

Michael Lohan in court on Oct. 6, 2011.

Michael Lohan’s in trouble with the law for the second time this week.

According to ABC affiliate WFTS, Tampa, Fla. police took the father of “Mean Girls” star Lindsay Lohan into custody early Thursday for violating the terms of his release. He was arrested Tuesday on a domestic abuse complaint.

Kate Major, Michael Lohan’s girlfriend who filed the original complaint, notified Tampa police to say that he had contacted her by phone. When they showed up at Major’s home, Lohan allegedly called Major again. Upon contacting the Hillsborough County State Attorney’s office, police were given the okay to arrest him.

Then things got hairy. Cops said Lohan tried to flee the scene by jumping off of a third floor balcony. He didn’t escape and was apprehended shortly thereafter. Paramedics initially determined that  Lohan was not hurt from the jump, whereupon he was transported to the Hillsborough County Jail for booking. But once he arrived at the jail, deputies suspected Lohan might have broken his foot. Early this morning he headed to Tampa General Hospital for evaluation and is expected to go back to jail for processing after.
