Overview
- Kate Lohan, arrested in Harris County on Tuesday, is charged with assaulting a family or household member with a prior conviction and was booked on a $35,000 bond.
- Reports say the incident at her home unfolded during a custody exchange with Michael Lohan, when she allegedly punched him, caused a bloody nose, and threw a steak knife that did not injure him.
- Court records indicate she was allegedly intoxicated during the arrest, and a judge ordered no contact with Michael along with mandatory alcohol testing.
- Following Thursday’s arraignment, the court also barred alcohol, drugs, and weapons, while her lawyer said she is unemployed, asked to be declared indigent, and may need a shelter or hotel due to the no-contact order.
- Prosecutors pointed to the couple’s history, including her 2024 conviction for assaulting a family member and his 2025 arrest that led to a nine‑month sentence with early release in October, as the case proceeds in Harris County.
