Kim Richards arrest

Kim Richards arrest, Kim Richards was arrested around 1:30am on Thursday morning after an allegedly drunken confrontation with police.

Security at the Beverly Hills Hotel called the cops to respond to a conflict, and Beverly Hills Police Department spokesman Lt. Lincoln Hoshino described the 50-year-old reality star as "belligerent, slurring her speech, and reeking of alcohol." Hoshino noted that Richards appeared to have had "too much to drink and was disturbing some of the other patrons" in the hotel's restaurant. Hotel security asked Richards to leave, but she refused at which point she went to the bathroom.

"Hotel security requested to make a Private Persons Arrest and BHPD officers entered the restroom and took her into custody," Hoshino added. "She was passively resisting and she was taken into custody on Private Person Arrest." According to authorities, when Richards was taken to the Beverly Hills Police Station for booking, she KICKED an officer.

Richards has been charged with public intoxication, trespassing, resisting an officer and battery on a police officer. She is set to appear at the LAX Superior Court on May 10. She has since been processed and released.

Richards has famously struggled with sobriety over the years, and though she successfully completed a stint in rehab in 2011, she fell off the wagon earlier this season on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Kim reportedly took a pain pill from her ex-husband, Monty Brinson, and when discussing her slip-up with her co-stars, all hell broke loose. In case you missed it, here's a clip from that episode:
