Prosecutors here are seeking a six-month jail term for actress Lindsay Lohan's mother Dina Lohan following her weekend arrest for driving while intoxicated (DWI). Dina, 57, is accused of crashing her 2016 Mercedes into another vehicle outside a restaurant in Long Island on January 11, before fleeing the scene and heading to her nearby home. However, the other female driver called the police and gave a chase, following Dina back to her property, where she was taken into custody, reports aceshowbiz.com. Lindsay Lohan’s Mother Dina Lohan Arrested for DWI, Crashes Her Mercedes on a Vehicle in New York.
