Paris Hilton‘s Twitter followers got an unexpected tweet from the heiress at 7:19 on Tuesday morning: "So Scary, just got woken up to a guy trying to break into my house holding 2 big knifes [sic]. Cops are here arresting [him]." The 29-year-old also snapped a photo of the handcuffed suspect from the back after he was already surrounded by authorities on her lawn.

Hilton detected the suspect banging on her windows before he ever managed to gain access into her house. The police arrived on the scene around 6:30 a.m., less than an hour before Hilton took to Twitter. The LAPD is questioning the suspect, a male in his 40s. Hilton suffered no injuries. "Thank god the police arrived so quickly," Hilton told RadarOnline. –KIMBERLY STEELE
