The ‘Babyshambles’ frontman was seized by the police after they discovered that he was carrying drugs, after letting him go with a fine in a case of Driving Under Influence of alcohol, reported Daily Mail online.
The police arrested the ex-boyfriend of supermodel Kate Moss and escorted him down the court steps to the police station across the road.
They later confirmed he had been arrested on suspicion of possessing a controlled drug, which he is believed to have dropped as he checked in at security. The bedraggled musician looked messy and appeared to have ripped his trousers.
The 30-year-old singer is no stranger to the police and has 21 previous drug offences and six previous motoring offences.
In the most recent case officers had also found one wrap of heroin in the car, worth up to £35, and what was described as ‘home-made crack pipe’ on the driver’s seat. A search of Doherty’s country home in Durley, near Marlborough, Wiltshire, uncovered a further 15 wraps worth around £350.
