Paris Hilton and Cy Waits can’t seem to fly under the radar.

The ho-tel heiress and her Las Vegas entrepreneur lover were involved in an alleged hit and run outside of Boa restaurant in West Hollywood last night.

Video of the incident clearly shows that Waits was behind the wheel of his Bentley when he ran over the leg of a photographer, only identified as Carol.

Surrounded by celebrity gossip media, a eyewitness says that Waits “gunned” the car and hit the woman, who was knocked to the pavement. Ouch!

Cy Waits rolled down his window and specifically asked if the paparazzo was okay, to which another photographer said, “yes” and told him to go.

Still, on the video, you can hear someone yelling, “hit and run, hit and run” after he and Paris fled. Police tracked down Waits and questioned him.

 
Waits was given a field sobriety test, which he apparently passed, and was “detained,” but later released. He was given a citation to appear in court.

Paramedics were also called to the scene of the accident, and they transported the woman to the hospital for treatment for a cut on her right shin.

It’s the latest legal woe for Cy Waits, who was busted for DUI in the Cadillac SUV that Paris Hilton was caught carrying cocaine in back in August.

After an initial series of excuses didn’t hold water, Paris Hilton pleaded guilty to drug charges and received two six-month suspended jail terms.
