BOSSIER CITY, Louisiana (AP) -- Miss Teen Louisiana lost her crown 11 days early after being arrested on charges of leaving a restaurant without paying and carrying marijuana.
Lindsey Evans was arrested on theft and drug charges in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Lindsey Evans was arrested on theft and drug charges in Bossier City, Louisiana.

RPM Productions Inc., the sponsor, took back the title on Tuesday after learning that Lindsey Evans, 18, of Blanchard, had been arrested, president Paula M. Miles said Wednesday.

Evans will have to return her sash and crown, but won't have to return any other prizes or cash equivalents, Miles said.

"She's done a good job this year," Miles said.

A call to Evans' parents' house was not answered Wednesday.

Miles said she had been told that the three women with Evans told police that Evans, alone in the group, had paid her bill. But Bossier City spokesman Mark Natale said Evans admitted not paying.

Bossier City police booked all four on theft charges, three on drug charges and two on drug paraphernalia charges, he said.

Natale said Bossier City police were called to a Posados Cafe restaurant Saturday evening because a group had left without paying $46.07. The manager had found a pocketbook at the table, and police found Evans' driver's license and about 2 grams of suspected marijuana in it, Natale said.

He said officers recognized Evans from the photo when the group returned for the pocketbook.

Miles said she talked with Evans on Monday.

The next Miss Teen Louisiana will be chosen November 1 at a pageant in Lafayette. Michelle Berthelot, Miss Louisiana USA 2008, will crown the winner

That is why I would not allow my DD to enter any of these! School first then when you are of age you can decide. Needless to say she now has a Masters, great job and never became that girl.

Beauty don't last for ever. I feel bad for the girls.

Sad. I remember a time when Beauty Queens were a positive role model. What on earth is happening to this world? Geesh!

I can't believe she was dumb enough to leave without paying but then to get caught with drugs in her purse~I feel bad for the parents

Hears about this on the "stupid criminals report" on the radio today!
