According to the Los Angeles Times, the necklace is a "one of a kind" piece of jewelry, made of gold and semiprecious stones and valued at $2,500.
The Los Angeles Police Department reportedly have store surveillance video to support their claim.
"As we understand it," Howard says, "police have in their possession video they believe forms a very powerful piece of evidence in this case - video that shows Lindsay Lohan wearing the necklace in question."
Police have requested a search warrant for Lohan's new home in Venice Beach, Calif., according to the reports.
