The 29-year-old celebrity socialite acknowledged owning $1,300 in cash, several credit cards, a package of rolling papers, and a broken tablet of the prescription asthma medication Albuterol also found in the purse late Friday during her arrest at the Wynn Las Vegas resort. Hilton’s latest boyfriend, Cy Waits , was also arrested after failing a field sobriety test. It was her friend’s purse. For a woman with so many fragrances, this one has a hard time passing the smell test. The 29-year-old celebrity faces a felony drug possession charge that would get her probation if convicted. Hilton told the officer she needed to use the bathroom and was escorted into the hotel.

Paris is hoping authorities will see sense and let her off the hook.” Hilton’s boyfriend’s car was pulled over last weekend when police noticed the smell of marijuana wafting out the windows.

Soon audiences can compare their faces up close. To avoid the growing crowd of onlookers and paparazzi, Paris suggested they move inside, to the Wynn Hotel . As they waited for a female officer to arrive to help with the search, Hilton asked for her purse to get lip balm. “Hilton admitted the Albuterol . . . was hers and is prescribed to her, but the suspected cocaine was not,” Flynn wrote. “As she began to open it, I saw a small bindle of what I believed to be cocaine in a clear baggy begin to fall from the purse and into my hand,” Flynn wrote. Paris, 29, told the officers she thought the cocaine was gum.

Now available in peppermint and sugar-free. The lieutenant asked “Hilton whose cocaine it was, and she said she had not seen it and” thought it was gum, he wrote in the report. She wrote: “I’m so thankful to all my fans for all the love and support you are giving me.” Hearts and flowers aside, she has yet to comment directly.

“Hilton said she needed to put some lip balm on, and I handed her the purse from the table,” Flynn wrote. Hilton told him she borrowed the purse, but the cash, asthma medication, credit cards and Zig-Zag wrappers inside were hers, Flynn said.
