Update: Richie Released on Bail
AP: Nicole Richie was arrested early Monday for investigation of driving under the influence after her car was reported headed the wrong way on a freeway. Richie was arrested without incident at 1:45 a.m. (PST) after she failed a field sobriety test given by California Highway Patrol officers, CHP Officer Todd Workman said. Richie's 2005 black Mercedes-Benz sport utility vehicle was stopped in the car pool lane of State Highway 134 in Burbank. Richie was placed in the passenger seat of her car, which was found to be operable, and an officer drove the car off the freeway. "She volunteered the information that she had smoked marijuana and taken Vicodin," the prescription painkiller, Workman said. No drugs were found on her or in the car.
