Paris Hilton Investigated for Drink-Driving
Paris Hilton was arrested early Thursday for investigation of driving under the influence. Anyone who didn’t see that one coming may want to schedule an eye exam. The aspiring pop star, 25, was pulled over by police in Hollywood around 12:30 am, officer I. Isabella confirms. Isabella claims Hilton was stopped because she was “driving erratically” in her Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. She was booked on suspicion of misdemeanor DUI and released on her own recognizance, he said. Her spokesman, Elliot Mintz, said police detected the minimum blood-alcohol level to warrant an arrest. The legal limit in California is 0.08 percent.
She told KIIS-FM radio in an interview that she had been to a charity fund-raiser party after a long day shooting a music video and had just one margarita. “I had one margarita (and) was starving because I had not eaten all day,” she said. “Maybe I was speeding a little bit and I got pulled over. I was just really hungry and I wanted to have an In-N-Out Burger.”
Hilton claims she was only taken to the police station because authorities wanted to make it seem like she was not getting preferential treatment because she’s a celebrity.
She said, “There was a lot paparazzi around, so I think they wanted me to make a statement. They even said, ‘There’s people watching, we don’t want them to think we’re giving you special treatment.”
“I totally understood. I was in there (the police station) 15 minutes and out.”
