It's a DUI for Miss USA, RadarOnline.com has confirmed.

"She was pulled over for speeding at 3:30 am," a Highland Park, Michigan police officer tells RadarOnline.com exclusively.  "She was then found to be impaired and taken into custody."

The beauty queen was held until 5 pm when she posted her bail of $150.

Fakih’s lawyer Doraid Elder told The Detroit Free Press his client's record "has not a single blemish” and she was “very saddened and very apologetic for the situation that she is in right now.”

Fakih, whose reign ended in June, was the first Arab American to win the Miss USA title.
