Jersey Shore's most infamous "guidette" Nicole 'Snooki' Polizzi has been taken into custody while filming in Italy.
Snooki and the rest of the tan-loving, gym-going New Jersey locals have been on location in Florence filming the fourth season of the popular MTV series.
The reality starlet, who is also a New York Times bestselling author for her novel A Shore Thing, was reportedly driving with her co-star Jenni 'J-WOWW' Farley when she crashed into a police car. 
No one was injured however witnesses say J-WOWW had to crawl out of the window of the vehicle which was wedged between the police car and a highway pylon.
MTV representatives were quick to squash claims that alcohol was involved.  
Officials in Florence have banned the cast and crew from filming at some of the city's most famous locations including the Uffizi Gallery and sculpture-filled Baboli Gardens.
Mayor Matteo Renzi has also warned the stars including Snooki, J-WOWW and Mike ‘The Situation’ Sorrentino they are not to drink in public and are not permitted to film in licensed bars and clubs around the city.
He said he wanted the show to promote Italy and feature its culture, traditions and good food.
The upcoming season will be a departure from what audiences expect from the group of American-Italian 20-somethings who, for three seasons, drank vodka shots, ate fast food and were embroiled in numerous physical scuffles including one which saw Snooki being punched in the face by a man at Jersey Shore bar.
Snooki who now commands more than $30,000 per episode, has added weight-loss wunderkind to her resume after shedding eight kilograms from her 150cm frame, a achievement which she credits to a healthy diet, exercise and diet pills.
Upon arriving in Italy she took to Twitter for advice on where to find Zantrex-3, diet supplements favoured by Britney Spears.
"Tons of good food here! Continuing my workouts and does anyone know where I can find some Zantrex fat burner in Italy? I am running out!" she asked her two million followers.
Before leaving for Italy in an interview with Star magazine she said, "Even though I'm not going to be slob and drink all the time it doesn’t mean I'm not going to be myself, I'm just not going to be blacked out and arrested."
