Walking in high heels is not a crime, but...

A beauty pageant contestant in California has been arrested after she was caught on video, walking comfortably in a pair of high heels.

State officials say Shawna Lynn Palmer had been collecting workers' compensation benefits after saying she had fractured a toe while working at a supermarket.

A doctor issued her crutches and an orthopedic shoe.

But officials say she wasn't showing any discomfort in the high heels as she competed to become Miss Toyota at the Long Beach Grand Prix.

She's facing three felony counts of defrauding an insurance company.
