She was later released pending an investigation into the case.
Gigi was fined $1,000 but TMZ reported that there is no conviction on her record.
The 28-year-old model began her career at the age of just two when she was discovered by Guess co-founder, Paul Marciano. Hadid began working as a child model before leaving the industry to concentrate her efforts on school.
She then returned in 2011 before having her huge breakthrough in 2013 after signing for IMG Models. In the years which followed, Hadid cemented her status as one of the top models in the world and one of the biggest names in fashion and entertainment.
Since September last year, Hadid has been rumoured to be in some sort of relationship with Leonardo DiCaprio, but as of yet, nothing has been confirmed.
