“The Speaker will not be commenting on this private matter which occurred while she was on the East Coast,” Drew Hammill, a spokesman for Speaker Pelosi, told the Washington Examiner.
Paul was arrested at 11:44 p.m. Saturday and then booked at 4:13 a.m. Sunday on a $5,000 bail. He has since been released as of 7:26 a.m., according to Napa County records.
No other information about the incident was immediately available. The couple owns an estate and vineyard on the banks of the Napa River, the Los Angeles Times reported in 2015.
Paul is a businessman who owns and operates San Francisco-based Financial Leasing Services, Inc.
