Police: Paris Hilton detained in South Africa - for possession of marijuana

Source: AP



Paris Hilton was detained in the South African city of Port Elizabeth on Friday for possession of marijuana, two South African police officers said.

The officers spoke on condition of anonymity, since they were not authorized to release Hilton's name before she appeared in court.

A spokeswoman for police at Port Elizabeth, Brig. Marinda Mills, declined to confirm the name, but said a high profile person was appearing in court.

"This person is appearing in court right now. We cannot reveal information about her until she has appeared in court. I am here with the individual in court, we're waiting for the court to start," Mills told the Associated Press.

Los Angeles-based publicist, Dawn Miller, said she was awaiting details from the court appearance before commenting.

Not looking too good for Paris.

Has Tinkerbell made bail for her, yet?

I guess she learned really fast that in SA it is called dagga.

"She was found in possession of some amount of dagga," the officer said, using the local name for marijuana. "We don't know how much. It's a high profile person, only the top cops are dealing with it," he said.

Something will be worked out.

Sarah is blasted every time she opens her mouth......or her mind and mouth are not connected

There is absolutely no justification for arresting ANYONE for pot smoking; I don't care if they're Paris Hilton or someone making minimum wage.

WGAF.

Give some money to NORML, South Africa branch, Paris.

This shit is a ridiculous waste of everyone's time. Does anyone believe those cops don't have something better to do while on the clock?
