Pete Doherty: I Was At The Scene Of German 'Burglary'

March 10, 2011
Pete Doherty: I Was At The Scene Of German 'Burglary'Pete Doherty has admitted being at a the scene of a burglary at a record shop in Germany, according to reports.

The singer is said to have made the confession during an appearance on the German TV channel, SAT.1.

On Tuesday (March 8), a woman told police the Babyshambles and Libertines star was one of three men outside the shop in the city's Old Town early on Tuesday Morning.

The eye witness claimed she passed the men and then heard a crash, before one man reached into the shop through a broken window.

A spokesman for Regensburg police confirmed that a "famous suspect" was involved in the case, but would not reveal their identity.

However, Doherty has now been quoted as telling the TV channel: “I was there but it wasn't me.”

Doherty is currently in the Bavarian city shooting his debut feature film, The Confession of a Child of the Century, alongside Charlotte Gainsbourg.
