Hilton was arrested shortly before 12:30 a.m. after being pulled over in
Hollywood, said police Officer I. Isabella, who declined to give his first name.
The officers observed that Hilton exhibited the symptoms of intoxication. A
field sobriety test was conducted at scene, and the officers determined she was
driving under the influence," Isabella said, reading a police statement.

She's absolutely fine," Mintz said. "She didn't appear in the least bit
to be intoxicated."

At the time of her arrest, Hilton was driving home
in her Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren from a charity event where she had one drink, a
margarita, he said. She had spent the day shooting a music video for her new
album, "Paris."

The driving under the influence symptoms were
"probably the result of an empty stomach and working all day and being
fatigued," Mintz said.
