R&B Singer Amy Winhouse Arrested, Again
Singer Amy Winehouse has been arrested after police were handed a video which allegedly showed her taking drugs. The 24-year-old is being questioned at a police station in east London, her spokesman said. A Metropolitan Police (Met) spokesman said the arrest was in connection with a video of the star passed to them in January this year. Britain's The Sun tabloid in January published still images from a video that it claimed showed Winehouse inhaling fumes from a small pipe. The images were said to have been filmed during a party at her London home. London's Metropolitan Police said a 24-year-old woman was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of drugs possession. Goodman confirmed his client was in police custody. "Amy Winehouse voluntarily attended a London police station today by appointment. She was arrested in order to be interviewed and is cooperating fully with inquiries," Goodman said in a statement. "The interview relates to a video handed to police earlier this year," he said. Winehouse is famous for her hit "Rehab." She has had a turbulent private life. Last month she was cautioned by police for assault after she slapped a man during a night out. That means no charges were filed, but the incident was placed on her record.
