Surprise! Doperty Arrested Again

Pete Doherty has been arrested for the second time in less than a week.
Police pulled Doperty over just after midnight today (Thursday) in Gloucester, England, and arrested him on suspicion of drug possession and driving under the influence of alcohol.
According to Britain's The Guardian newspaper, Doperty is still in custody and will be questioned today. Doperty had played a solo show at Gloucester's Guildhall just before the incident.
A 30-year-old woman was also arrested on suspicion of drug possession and she is also being questioned about the incident.
Last Friday Doperty was allegedly found slumped over in an airplane washroom with a used hypodermic needle near him during a flight from London, England to Geneva, Switzerland. He was arrested upon arrival in Geneva and tested positive for heroin use, but was released after he paid a fine.
Doperty was sentenced to 14 months in jail last year for violating the terms of his probation when he was found with crack cocaine, heroin, marijuana and ketamine. He served only 29 days of his term before he was released.
Doperty's debut solo album, Grace/Wastelands, came out earlier this year. He'll play these gigs in support of it:
