Marijuana ‘vapour trail’ lead police to Paris and drugs

PARIS HILTON was arrested in Las Vegas late on Friday after a police motorcycle officer smelled marijuana smoke wafting from a vehicle driven by her boyfriend, then found a small amount of cocaine in her handbag, officials said yesterday.

Suspecting the odour was marijuana, the officer stopped the car late on Friday and during a check police say a bag of cocaine fell out of the 29-year-old socialite’s purse.

The officer “followed the vapour trail and the odour of marijuana to the Escalade,” police Sgt John Sheahan said. A crowd quickly gathered when Hilton and Las Vegas nightclub mogul Cy Waits were stopped.
