Barron Hilton, the younger brother of Paris and Nicky Hilton, was arrested Tuesday for a DUI.
Barron Hilton, 18, was arrested on misdemeanor suspicion of driving under the influence. The arrest took place in Malibu at 8:04 a.m. on Tuesday morning, when Hilton was pulled over on Pacific Coast Highway by a Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputy.
Hilton rammed an employee at the 76 gas station off the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu early Tuesday morning, just before his arrest for DUI.
Hilton was hauled off to the Lost Hills Station, where he was checked in at 8:35 a.m. Hilton is currently being held on $5000 bail.
Barron blew a .14 blood alcohol reading, which registered at nearly twice the legal limit, even for people over 21.
In California, .08 is considered legally intoxicated for drivers over 21. If they’re under 21, and Barron is 18, any blood alcohol level is considered legally drunk.
Barron is the third of Rick and Kathy Hilton's four children. He is named after his grandfather, William Barron Hilton, one of the patriarchs of the Hilton family, along with father Conrad Hilton, the founder of the Hilton Hotel chain.
