Rock star Pete Doherty was bailed by police today after being arrested on suspicion of fresh drug offences.
The 27-year-old Babyshambles front man was held in an east London police station on suspicion of possessing Class A drugs after police stopped a car.
The 21-year-old driver of the car, who was also arrested, has been released on bail to a date next month pending further inquiries.
Doherty's arrest came just three hours after he was spared jail by magistrates for possessing controlled drugs.
Looking dishevelled and wearing a leather jacket and jeans, the singer left the police station today accompanied by his solicitor.
As he walked down the road, he told waiting reporters: "I feel like smacking you in the face, mate, stay away from me."
A Scotland Yard spokeswoman said Doherty, from Fulham, had been released on police bail.
