It was her friend's purse.
For a woman with so many fragrances, this one has a hard time passing the smell test.
"She told me the purse was not hers, that she had borrowed it from a friend," Las Vegas police Lt. Dennis Flynn wrote in his report of Hilton's arrest shortly before midnight Friday. The friend was not identified.
Of course not.
Amazingly, even though Paris said that the actual purse was not hers, she acknowledged that the asthma medication, rolling paper, credit cards, lip balm and $1,300 in cash inside the purse were hers.
"Hilton admitted the Albuterol . . . was hers and is prescribed to her, but the suspected cocaine was not," Flynn wrote. "I asked Hilton whose cocaine it was, and she said she had not seen it but now thought it was gum."
Wow, chewable coke. Now available in peppermint and sugar-free.
After Paris asked to go to the restroom, Flynn said that she was taken from her boyfriend's Escalade to a security holding room inside the Wynn Hotel to await the arrival of a female officer to accompany her to the loo.
"Hilton said she needed to put some lip balm on, and I handed her the purse from the table," Flynn wrote. "As she began to open it, I saw a small bindle of what I believed to be cocaine in clear plastic baggy begin to fall from the purse and into my hand."
The bindle was reportedly 0.8 grams.
Hilton's lawyer, David Chesnoff, said yesterday that he would not comment on the police report.
* All that time in the slammer and in rehab has worked wonders on Lindsay Lohan.
She was pulled over by police Sunday morning in Los Angeles for running a red light, X17Online.com reports.
She was driving a brand-new Maserati. She was headed to the Chateau Marmont Hotel, where she'd previously spent many a night behaving badly.
Can't LiLo lay low for a week? Is that too much to ask?
