BRITISH rock star Pete Doherty has been arrested and charged after police spotted him driving waywardly in London overnight.
The Babyshambles frontman was stopped by police on a routine patrol and 'suspicious substances' were found in his car, Britain's Press Association reported.
Doherty, who has had a high-profile and rocky relationship with troubled supermodel Kate Moss, has been charged with driving under the influence of
Doherty recently followed Moss into a rehab clinic but was dumped by the model - not for the first time - as she set her sights on re-starting her career after being linked to cocaine use.
An admitted drug addict, 26-year-old Doherty was arrested three weeks ago in London and charged with drug possession.
'The attention of officers on routine patrol in Mount Pleasant Lane was drawn to a vehicle due to the erratic manner in which it was being driven,' a Metropolitan Police spokeswoman was quoted as saying by PA.
'The vehicle was followed into Dudlington Road where the male occupant and three passengers apparently left the vehicle and made off on foot.
'Officers arrested the driver of the vehicle, a 26-year-old man, on suspicion of driving under the influence of drink or drugs.'
