LONDON - British police have charged Pete Doherty, the sometime boyfriend of supermodel Kate Moss, with possession of heroin, crack cocaine, morphine and marijuana.
Doherty, 26, was due to appear in court late Friday, officials said.
Police said the charges stemmed from Doherty's arrest in east London on Dec. 4, one of a string of drug busts for the lead singer of the band Babyshambles.
Doherty also was arrested on Nov. 30 and charged with possession of cocaine and heroin. He pleaded guilty last week and was released on bail until his next court appearance.
He was stopped by police last Saturday while driving through east London and again arrested on suspicion of possessing drugs. He was released on bail and ordered to return to a police station for questioning on Feb. 2.
Moss, 31, lost valuable modeling contracts with H&M, Burberry and Chanel after the Daily Mirror tabloid published pictures in September of her allegedly using cocaine in a west London music studio where Doherty, then her boyfriend, was recording.
She later went into a rehabilitation clinic in Arizona and has since resumed her modeling career.
