A man who approached Paris Hilton's home armed with two knives was arrested early this morning. At about 6 a.m., the man apparently was pounding on the door and windows when Hilton's boyfriend answered it. Someone called the police and the man was soon arrested. His name wasn't released but he is said to be from Redlands and in his 40s. He reportedly never entered the home. "So Scary, just got woken up to a guy trying to break into my house holding 2 big knifes. Cops are here arresting him," she tweeted along with a photo (seen to the right).
Hilton lives in the gated Sherman Oaks community of Mulholland Estates.
