Ride Me

It all went down as paparazzi swarmed the car as Paris and Cy Waits left Boa in West Hollywood. The posse of paparazzi was all over the car, when suddenly Cy accelerated, knocking a photog down.

The couple took off after the hit and the photog called the cops. Paramedics were also called and took the female photog to a local hospital.

We're told at some point later, Cy came back, sans Paris, and spoke with police.

Law enforcement sources tell us Cy was cited for hit-and-run, then allowed to leave.

And get this ... sources say Paris is saying, "The pap is making up injuries."

Law enforcement sources also tell us they're looking into all of the photogs, because flashing the lights could have blinded the driver ... which may constitute interfering with the operation of a motor vehicle -- which is also a crime.

UPDATE: Sources close to Cy tell us ... Waits is adamant that he was not cited for hit-and-run. Instead, Waits believes the photographer placed him under citizen's arrest -- and cops were obligated to sign the citizen's arrest form.

Sam Jones III stepped out of the baller Rolls Phantom outside Premiere Supper Club in Hollywood over the weekend -- Karissa by his side -- claiming, "That is not a rental ... young mogul style."

Unfortunately for Sammy the real owner of the car -- Jay Grdina, the guy behind the website kikster.com -- contacted TMZ and says, "Considering I have the only matte black Phantom in L.A. ... ole Sam just told a nice lie to TMZ."

Vinny's 2011 Mercedes-Benz was towed early Thursday morning in New York City ... so our tow sources say.

Vinny parked his ride in a no-no zone on Wednesday night outside of his buddy's place -- and awoke to discover he was Mercedes-less.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Suge was pulled over in L.A. around 3 AM for a traffic violation -- but it got more serious when cops discovered Suge was driving on a suspended license.

The cops put Suge in the squad car while officers searched the car, but found nothing (

The chick playing tonsil hockey with The Biebs is 16-year-old Jasmine Villegas -- who also happens to be the opening act on Bieber's concert tour.

The photos were taken on Thursday, September 9 in Venice, CA by some Canadian tourist who just happened to notice his country's most famous pop star in the midst of a make-out session with the luckiest teenage girl on the planet.

The two had been rumored to be dating ... but they insisted they were just "really cool friends."

Law enforcement sources tell us Gandolfini was pulled over for two traffic violations -- running a stop sign while talking on the phone -- while cruising through the Hollywood Hills -- and then determined he didn't have a valid license.

The owner of the other car -- a Los Angeles restaurant parking attendant -- claims Hannah Montana herself smacked into his parked car. We spoke to his attorney, Mauro Fiore, who says Miley claimed the white Benz she was driving belonged to her BF ... but we checked and it's actually registered to her mom.

Fiore says Miley left her phone number with the parking attendant -- whose '91 Camry was totaled according to Fiore -- and then sped off. The attendant didn't file a police report at the time -- but his lawyer says he plans to do so today.

As for whether Miley's actions constitute a hit-and-run ... police tell us, hypothetically speaking, it doesn't because she left contact information with the alleged victim.

T.I.'s probation officer just filed documents in Georgia that say L.A. County Sheriff's deputies found codeine, marijuana and ecstasy in T.I.'s possession during the September 1 arrest.

As we first reported, T.I. had several Styrofoam cups in his Maybach that night (pictured above). Sizzurp -- aka codeine syrup -- is commonly served in Styrofoam cups.

The document also states that T.I. tested positive for opiates the day after the arrest, but does not name a specific drug. Neither marijuana nor ecstasy are opiates.

Ross was able to walk away from the wreck, but the L.A. City Fire Department tells us one person was taken to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

We were on scene right after the crash, where Jeff told us he was "a little shaken up" -- then immediately cracked a joke at a fellow roaster, saying, "That's what happens when you don't feed Lisa Lampanelli!"

Now for the amazing part -- even though Jeff's Prius took a major hit in the accident ... he still managed to drive off in it.

Lindsay flashed her new whip at the courthouse in Santa Monica where she dutifully met with her probation officer -- and faced questions about Michael Lohan, family photos and "Machete."

The 47-year-old singer has previously admitted to getting behind the wheel of his Range Rover while high on weed and crashing into a photo shop.

A dapper-looking George, seen above on his way into the courtroom, seemed to be in good spirits before the sentencing.

So far, no word on when George will begin his stint behind bars.

As we previously reported, James threw a HL decal on the side of his badass custom-built racer ... despite multiple warnings that Harvey has a terrible history with cars.

So when the truck was set to make its official debut -- everything went to hell ... meaning the car broke down mid-race and never crossed the finish line.

During the call, a state park worker tells the 911 operator, "I need to tell you ... are you ready? The driver is Mel Gibson."

The park worker goes on to explain, "He just drove right into the mountainside."

As we previously reported, cops claim alcohol was not a factor in the crash -- and Mel repeatedly told officers that he couldn't explain how the car drifted off the road.
