Actress Amanda Bynes Needs a New Bong: Busted for Throwing Her Last One Out the Window

New York, NY

I can remember when Amanda Bynes was bangable. Boy, how time and drugs change things.

Anyway, the so-called actress was busted in New York City after police say she threw a bong out of her apartment window, some 36 floors above the ground.

Officers were called to her theater district residence after her building manager reported the 27-year-old star was smoking an "illegal substance" in the lobby.

Bynes had headed back to her apartment by the time police arrived, but she let officers in when they knocked on the door, according to a police spokesperson.

Once inside, the officers noticed a bong and other marijuana paraphernalia sitting on the coffee table, which Bynes immediately started throwing out the window.

Police have charged her with tampering with physical evidence, reckless endangerment and criminal possession of marijuana. Bynes was charged with endangerment because the paraphernalia could have hit someone below.

The tampering charge is a felony. The two others are misdemeanors.

The star of "Easy A" and "Hairspray" has lived in New York since last fall, having moved there from the Los Angeles area.

Bynes has a DUI case pending in Southern California, while a pair of separate hit-and-run incidents against her were dismissed late last year. Earlier this month, she was sentenced to three years probation for driving on a suspended license.
Bynes immediately took to Twitter to respond:
