Pete DohertyAfter causing a ruckus over a Nazi row, Pete Doherty is not having the best of luck in Germany: the musician has been arrested in the country for smashing the back window of a car.

The Babyshambles frontman was taken into custody for throwing a pint glass at a car - believed to be parked at the time - outside of the bar Trinkteufel (Drink Devil) in Berlin shortly before 7am on Saturday morning). According to German newspaper Bild, Pete had been thrown out of another bar a short while earlier, and upon arriving at Trinkteufel had been asking staff where he could buy some drugs. 

A bartender said, “I almost threw them out too. He was drinking shots and constantly asking where to get cocaine.”

Pete was taken to a police station not far from Checkpoint Charlie - the best known crossing point between East and West Germany when the country was separated after World War II - where he spent the next three hours. He was booked for property damage and released.
