According to the media reports, Katie Rees was taken into custody after she kicked a police officer.  She is being held in the Clark County Detention Center on six misdemeanor charges such as driving with suspended license plates, speeding and resisting a police officer.

Katie Rees won the Miss Nevada title in April 2006. But in December 2006 she lost her crown and the right to compete for the Miss USA title after racy pictures of her appeared on the Internet. The pictures showed her kissing other women and partially taking her clothes off.

"I deserved that title. I deserved to win that title," Rees said in an interview at the time. "I don't see why these pictures change the person that I was when I won it."

Rees said the photos that cost her crown were pictures of young girls "just being goofy and celebrating" that pre-dated her reign as Miss Nevada.

She also claimed that the Miss Universe Organization treated her unfairly, unlike Miss USA Tara Conner, who kept her crown and was allowed to enter rehab after admitting to underage drinking.
