Eyewitness claims that after hitting a baby stroller with her car, the 'Machete' actress admitted she saw a woman and the stroller, but defended herself by saying, 'they didn't move out of the way'.

Lindsay Lohan has been accused of lightly hitting a baby stroller with her car before deciding to flee the scene. While Lindsay denied the hit-an-run incident, and a witness told Radar Online that the "Machete" actress admitted she "saw" the woman and child crossing the road a short while after clipping them.

Detailing his brief words exchange with the 24-year-old on the scene, photographer Austin Visschedyk first recalled what he said to him. "I pulled up next to Lindsay after I saw her knock the stroller," he said. "I said. 'Whoa, what the f*** are you doing?' " He noted that the troubled actress was speechless for a moment, before responding, "Well, I saw them, but they didn't move out of the way."

Radar, which has the video of the incident, reported the "Mean Girls" actress accidentally hit a woman and child in a stroller while driving her Maserati in her West Hollywood neighborhood at around 5 P.M. on Wednesday, September 1. It was said that she failed to look both ways before turning. The clipping reportedly caused the four-wheeled stroller to tip up onto one wheel.

Brayan Jaime, who saw the incident, described what happened. "There was a woman pushing a kid in the stroller, maybe a two or three-year-old, crossing the street," he said. "Lindsay took the red light and hit the stroller. It wasn't super hard, but she made impact and hit them. Lindsay pulled to the right, stopped for two seconds, and then just kept going."

Brayan further claimed that contrary to report saying that Lindsay was going a mere one-mile-an-hour when the accident took place, she was more likely "going at least 10-15 miles per hour". The eyewitness added that even a man standing 10 feet away was scared of the incident. "There was a guy standing on the corner who jumped back when it happened. He was clearly scared," he said.
