In trouble again

LONDON: Singer Amy Winehouse was arrested in connection with a January video, which allegedly shows her taking drugs at a party at her north London home. London’s Metropolitan Police said the Grammy winner had been released on bail following questioning. Her spokesman confirmed that she had been arrested on Wednesday. “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.” A British daily in January published images that it claimed showed Winehouse inhaling fumes from a small pipe. Winehouse, who is famous for her hit “Rehab,” was cautioned last month after she slapped a man during a night out. That means no charges were filed, but the incident was placed on her record. — AP
