Paris Hilton
Paris Hilton had a fender-bender accident when her Range Rover backed into a car in a parking garage after a shopping trip, her publicist said Friday.
Hilton backed into a parked Honda Civic on Thursday. A videotape on the TMZ.com Web site showed Hilton getting into the car, saying goodbye to someone and backing up. The sound of a crash followed.
The video showed scrapes on the bumpers of both vehicles.
The Range Rover stopped briefly then continued on toward the exit of the parking structure.
TMZ.com indicated Hilton failed to leave contact information for the Honda's owner and thus may have violated laws against hit-and-run. Her publicist denied that.
"Did she commit a crime? No," Elliot Mintz said.
"She was swarmed by paparazzi," he said. "The intensity of the lights, flashbulbs, momentarily disoriented her. She backed up, there was a minor fender-bender. No injuries. She then told me she notified one of the parking people at the facility how to contact her and asked the person to please pass that along" to the owner of the struck car.
"She did the correct thing and she would not leave the scene of a crime," he said.
Mintz said Hilton is insured.
"Paris is a very responsible and a very good driver. ... She takes her driving seriously," Mintz said. "This was unfortunate ... it will be handled appropriately."

Pitt, Jolie, Baby Daughter Leave Namibia
In this image made from video, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie speak to a reporter in Swakopmund, Namibia, Wednesday, June 7, 2006. In the interview, conducted by the Namibian Broadcasting Corp. and obtained exclusively Thursday, June 8, 2006 by AP Television News, Pitt and Jolie sit side by side, reflecting on their experience in the African country where their daughter Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt was born May 27.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie left Namibia with their newborn daughter and their two older children after a two-month stay at a luxury beach resort, an official said Saturday.
Samuel Nuuyoma, the governor of the Namibian region of Erongo, confirmed the family's departure but would not say when they left or where they went.
The couple thanked the Namibian government and its people at a news conference Wednesday for the peace they enjoyed in the southwest African country.
"We are very proud that our daughter was born here, and we leave with fond memories and definitely hungry to return," Pitt, 42, said.
It was the couple's first public appearance since Jolie, 31, gave birth to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt on May 27 at a private clinic in the resort town of Walvis Bay. The baby weighed 7 pounds and was said to be in good health.
Pitt and Jolie had retreated to Namibia for government-assisted privacy in the weeks leading up to Shiloh's birth. They were accompanied by Jolie's children, 16-month-old Zahara, adopted from Ethiopia, and 4-year-old Maddox, adopted from Cambodia.
Both children had their surnames legally changed to Jolie-Pitt after Pitt announced his intention to adopt them as well. But the couple has denied rumors of an impending wedding, saying they want to concentrate on the children for now.
Pitt and Jolie were first linked romantically after appearing in the 2005 movie "Mr. & Mrs. Smith." Jolie, who won an Oscar for her supporting role in 1999's "Girl, Interrupted," is divorced from Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller.
Pitt and Jennifer Aniston divorced last year
