Pete Doherty Arrested in Germany

After 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.

Pete Doherty and Amy Winehouse: The Ugly Kiss

I’m not sure if this should be considered the grossest thing in some time - or simply the most fitting.

Earlier this week, troubled musicians Pete Doherty and Amy Winehouse spent some quality time together.  After a concert performance, the Babyshambles member continued his freedom celebration (he had just served 29 days in jail for a probation violation) at Winehouse’s London home.  When the party ended, the guest made sure to kiss his hostess goodbye.

While this was not a sight most people should see, it really does make sense.  I’m sure these two have far more in common than Pete and Kate Moss ever did.  It’s not like the model could ever live without good skin…or showers.
