Troubled singer Amy Winehouse has reportedly been arrested over drug offences. The 24-year-old star is currently being questioned at a police station in East London.

It is Winehouse's second brush with the law in as many weeks; The Back to Black hitmaker was accused of headbutting a man outside a North London pub on 23 April (08) and later turned herself in to authorities. She escaped with a caution. Winehouse - who has faced a long and public battle against drugs and alcohol- checked into a rehab clinic in London in January (08) after a video showing her allegedly taking a variety of illegal substances was passed on to British newspaper The Sun.

She was also arrested, along with her husband Blake Fielder-Civil, in Bergen, Norway last year (Oct 07) on suspicion of possessing cannabis.

Winehouse was issued with a $714 fine, which she accepted, not realising that paying up is the same as pleading guilty in the Scandinavian country. (LR/WN/LJ)
