New York, July 9 (Inditop.com) Actress Lindsay Lohan was forced to call in a locksmith when she got stranded outside on and off girlfriend Samantha Ronson’s Hollywood home, but refused to pay him when she managed to enter the house through an open window.

In video footage posted on TMZ.com, Lohan is seen walking around the front entrance of the DJ’s house on Tuesday night while a friend, known only as Christy, watches the professional work on unlocking the door.

Imdb.com reports that Lohan is then heard telling her pal, “What the f**k, the lock just came undone”, referring to one of the windows, before disappearing out of view as her pal told the locksmith, “You know what sir, we already got in, thanks. We just broke in. We just found a way in.”

But the man refused to leave without at least collecting his $39 call-out-fee and Lohan turned to the paparazzi who were capturing her every move for advice about what to do.

“This guy… is asking me to pay him but he didn’t get me in, Christy did. Can you tell him? He didn’t even get me in. He’s trying to charge me $300. I’ve paid these guys before, $80, and now he wants money for trying to get me in, he didn’t do his job,” Lohan told a reporter there.

After being encouraged not to hand over the cash, Lohan offered the locksmith $20, before returning indoors and refusing to pay anything, prompting the man to return to his van empty-handed.
