Amy Winehouse arrested for 'assault'

Troubled Amy Winehouse has been arrested over claims she assaulted a man on Wednesday night in London. During a wild night partying in Camden it’s claimed Amy headbutted a stranger who hailed her a cab and punched a man for refusing to give way to her at the pool table in a north London pub. “I feel so angry. She smashed my face hard,” Moroccan musician Mustapha El Mounmi said. “I could not hit back – she's a woman.” Another onlooker claimed to have seen the singer “off her face, throwing drinks around and turning over tables” and even witnessed the Back To Black star screaming, “I am a legend, get these people out. I want to take drugs.” Amy’s arrest at Holborn police station comes on the same day it was announced that she is to make her first appearance on the Sunday Times Rich List.

With a fortune estimated at £10m, she is ranked joint 10th with Will Young and Craig David in the Young Music Millionaires category. It follows a spectacular year for her, during which she sold more than five million albums.
