Nicole Richie in car crash

Socialite told officers she was in pain

Nicole Richie's two children were not in the vehicle at the time of the crash

Nicole Richie was involved in a minor prang yesterday.

The socialite's car was rear-ended by paparazzi in Beverly Hills.

‘Ms Richie was driving with a passenger around 2pm when she was struck by two photographers driving in one vehicle behind her,' says Lt Tony Lee.

‘She complained of pain...Her car sustained moderate damage. No paramedics were called to the scene.

‘She told officers she was going to seek her own medical treatment, so it's unknown if she's headed to a hospital or not.'

The other driver was arrested for failing to verify his identification.

‘This will likely be a misdemeanour traffic violation,' adds Lt Lee.
