Lindsay Lohan's father faces NY harassment charge

[July 24, 2010]  SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y. (AP) -- Actress Lindsay Lohan's father faces a harassment charge in New York after his fiancee says he kicked and threatened to kill her.

Michael Lohan is due in a Southampton courtroom on Aug. 18.

His fiancee, 27-year-old Kathryn Major, told police that she and the 50-year-old Lohan argued on Monday over a missed cell phone call at their Water Mill home on Long Island. Major says Lohan kicked and threatened her.

Lohan's attorney, Lisa Bloom, says her client denies all the charges.

Some media reports Friday said the couple, who were engaged in April, have split. Bloom did not immediately comment on the reports.

Lohan was in Los Angeles this week to watch his daughter surrender to begin a 90-day jail term for violating terms of her probation.
