Accused Lindsay Lohan Burglars Deny Wrongdoing

Two women arrested in connection with the burglaries of Lindsay Lohan and Audrina Patridge's Los Angeles homes have denied involvement in the raids.

The Mean Girls actress' house was broken into in August, while The Hills star Patridge's property was targeted in a similar crime in February.

Diana Tamayo, 19, and 18 year olds Alexis Neirs and Courtney Ames were arrested in Los Angeles on felony burglary charges on Thursday night, reports TMZ.com.

Ames and Neirs were subsequently released from Van Nuys jail after posting $50,000 (?333,330) bail - and immediately denied any wrongdoing.

Ames insisted she is innocent as she left custody, while Neirs told reporters: "I didn't do jack s**t, it's a joke."

Tamayo remained in custody as Wenn went to press.

Two other suspects - Rachel Lee, 19, and Nicholas Prugo, 18 - have also been held over the burglaries.

Lee was arrested on Thursday in Clark County, Nevada for possession of stolen property and remains in custody with bail set at $3,000 (?2,000).

Prugo was seized in September on suspicion of burgling Lohan's home and masterminding the Patridge raid. He is currently free on $20,000 (?13,300) bail, and is due in court on 11 November.
