Nicole Richie, daughter of Lional Richie, was involved in a rear end accident in Los Angeles (specificallyBeverly Hills) earlier this week when we was hit from behind by a papaparazzo driving a vehicle (no it wasn’t a bicycle). Apparently she was expected to seek medical attention, according to the police. “Ms. Richie was driving with a passenger around 2 p.m. when she was struck by two photographers driving in one vehicle behind her,” said Lt. Tony Lee of the Beverly Hills Police. “She complained of pain … Her car sustained moderate damage. No paramedics were called to the scene.” He added: “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 driver who hit Richie from behind (I’m talking about the car people) was arrested and booked for being unlicensed because as he was unable to provide identification to the police officer on the scene. Richie’s two children were not in the car riding with Nicole so luckily they were not involved. Hero husband Benji Madden arrived on the scene to help out.
