Warrant Issued For Pete Doherty's Arrest

added 18 July 2008 at 11.04

The Babyshambler's hassles with The Man continue after he fails to show up in court.

Pete Doherty's in trouble - again. A warrant for the Babyshambles frontman's arrest has been issued after he failed to appear at Yeovil Magistrates Court yesterday (July 17). Doherty was due to answer allegations of criminal damage following an incident in a shop in Crewkerne, Somerset last August. 

It's claimed that the singer chased photographer Cath Mead after she took a shot of Doherty and his then-girlfriend Irina Lazareanu, and the fracas resulted in damage to a camera.

It's the latest in a long line of brushes with the authorities for the 29-year-old musician and he's expected to appear before the magistrates again next week.
