Pete Doherty
Pete Doherty, the Babyshambles front-man, attended Gloucester Court today to face charges of driving offences following a gig in the city back in June.
The 30-year-old apparently left the Guildhall gig with a woman and in an attempt to avoid the waiting press jumped in his waiting car and drove off as fast as he could despite being banned from driving in 2007.
Doherty tried to swap places with his female passenger on being stopped by the police who described the singer as being unsteady on his feet and smelling of alcohol! As his car was searched, officers also found a wrap of heroine and a home-made crack pipe. Doherty’s home was also searched and a further 15 wraps of heroine were found.
The Babyshambles singer admitted careless driving and drink-driving at the hearing and was fined £2,050 and banned from driving for a further 18 months.
However, Doherty was then escorted from the Court to the police station opposite where he was arrested on suspicion of a controlled drug. Although Doherty has had no previous conviction for drink-driving he has 6 motoring offences against him and 21 drug charges. Good to seen the system’s working then!
With all the drugs that Doherty takes I am sure he has heard of Levitra, it is used for those moments when men are unable to perform in bed, but then again that must be most of the time for him!
