Miss Teen Louisiana Loses Crown After Drug Arrest
Wednesday October 22, 2008
![]() Splash News Miss Teen Louisiana has lost her crown following an arrest for marijuana possession and leaving a restaurant without paying. Lindsey Evans, 18, and three pals skipped out on a $46.07 bill at Bossier City, Louisiana's Posados Cafe on Saturday. A manager identified the beauty queen as the culprit because she left her purse at the table. Police also found 2 grams of suspected marijuana inside the handbag, city spokesman Mark Natale told the Associated Press. When Evans returned to the scene to pick up her purse, police recognized her from her drivers license photo. The group of four were booked on theft charges, three on drug charges and two on drug paraphernalia charges, Natale said. RPM Productions, Inc., the company that sponsors the beauty pageant, took back the title Tuesday evening after hearing of the winner's weekend arrest. Evans will have to return her sash and crown, but will be able to keep any prize money, according to RPM president Paula M. Miles. "She's done a good job this year," Miles told the AP. Evans downplayed her arrest. "I am only human," Evans told TMZ.com following the incident. The teen told the site she paid her portion of the restaurant bill with a "nice, crisp 20." (However, Natale says Evans admitted earlier she didn't pay.) A new Miss Teen Louisiana will be chosen Nov. 1 at a pageant in Lafayette, Louisiana.
