Now, this is a first. Video shot by a paparazzo might just help Lindsay Lohan escape some legal problems.

Remember back in March when some photog said Lindsay hit him with her car? Well, we could've told you this back then (we actually did!), but dude's a major faker. Earlier this week, TMZ posted video footage of Giovanni Arnold chasing Tiger Woods down the street on Monday demanding an autograph. So what, you ask? That's the same guy that claims that Lindsay hit him! "He's been all over the city, gimping about with a cane," a fellow photog tells the New York Daily News. The Tiger Woods video "is helpful," according to L. Lo's rep because it proves that he is, in fact, fine. "It's about time the truth comes out," she says. Amen!
