JOHANNESBURG -- Paris Hilton’s World Cup bliss seems to have suffered quite a blow, as police reportedly escorted the hotel heiress from the Brazil vs Netherlands quarterfinal match at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth, South Africa just prior to 8 p.m. on Friday local time. The charges against Hilton were later dropped.

Hilton's rep said another unnamed member of the group was being blamed for the marijuana, and authorities, after questioning Hilton, had dropped any charges against the hotel heiress.

It is believed Hilton was part of a group taken to the Mount Road Police Station in St Croix, where she was allegedly detained and questioned over smoking marijuana in the stadium.

A Hilton insider told Pop Tarts that she was not formally arrested, despite the rampant rumors now flooding the web.
