Lindsay Lohan's alleged attacker will not be prosecuted.
The 26-year-old Liz & Dick actress had filed a police report claiming she was choked and thrown to the floor by Christian LaBella after she confronted him for taking pictures of her in a New York City hotel room in the early hours of Sunday morning.
But a New York City Police Department source told US gossip website TMZ that all charges have since been dropped against the 25-year-old young man. Christian had initially been charged with two misdemeanor counts of assault and two counts of harassment.
Lindsay - who has been jailed countless times for charges stemming from DUI (Driving Under the Influence) and misdemeanor possession to grand theft - was earlier said to be determined that Christian was prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Katy Perry’s Ex-Boyfriend Johnny Lewis Found Dead
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Obituaries,
Katy Perry's ex-boyfriend Johnny Lewis has been found dead.
The 28-year-old actor - who dated Katy for 18 months until March 2007 - is believed to have killed his 81-year-old landlady Catherine Davis before leaping to his death from his home in Los Angeles yesterday. The upstairs of the building had been ransacked and a cat had also been killed.
"It's a terrible tragedy as far as we're concerned and we're digging into the bottom of it. He appeared to have died from some type of fall, either from the stairway, or from the balcony, or from one of the roofs. The best we're piecing together now is that it appears that some type of altercation occurred inside of the house resulting in the death of the woman. Then this individual ran outside, had an altercation with a couple of neighbors, ran back into the house and by the time we got here, he had fallen or had somehow died on the driveway," said Los Angeles Police Department Spokesman Andrew Smith.
Officers initially responded to a 911 call that a woman was heard screaming. No motive for the killing is yet known.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star was stopped by the California Highway Patrol on Thursday. Kim's brand new $300k custom Rolls Royce Ghost was pursued by the vehicle with lights and sirens in the afternoon as she was driving on the 101 Freeway in Los Angeles.
Sources told website TMZ.com, that Kim was released without punishment when she showed officers that she secretly keeps her license plates in the glove compartment of her motor. Kim did not receive a ticket in order to pay a fine and may have been let off because paparazzi had been following her from a nearby gym. Kim traded her old white version of the car - which apparent costs about $250,000 at a base price, for her new black vehicle only a couple of weeks ago.
The 31-year-old reality TV star recently said her mother and manager Kris Jenner doesn't need to approve all of her decisions: "My mum has been there for me throughout every single minute of my life and is always a constant source of strength. I certainly listen to her opinions but I don't need her approval for a boyfriend."

Justin Bieber will be quizzed by police over his alleged brawl with a photographer.
The 'Boyfriend' singer was reportedly involved in an altercation with a photographer in a shopping center car park in Calabasses, California, in May, and is expected to be called in for questioning when he returns to the US.
Lawyer Anahita Sedaghatfar - who is not connected with the case - told Fox News yesterday, "He will definitely be called in for questioning. This is a high-profile case which has gotten a ton of media attention. The police will have to dot their Is and cross their Ts for sure. However, Bieber is under no legal obligation to talk to the police. He likely will speak to them nevertheless, of course with his attorneys' guidance."
According to the legal expert, the case is unlikely to be taken further until Justin speaks to police. "The police will have to get his side of the story in order to determine whether to dump the case or turn it over to prosecutors. They certainly cannot press charges based on the little evidence they have now," the lawyer added.

Witnesses claim Lindsay struck the manager on her way out from the Sayers Club but say he was not injured. However, he went to the emergency room and according to TMZ.com he is going to press charges and hire a lawyer.
Despite his claims, law enforcement authorities claimed there was "no evidence" of a crime having taken place. "There was no evidence of a crime or a hit and run," a police spokesperson said.
