 Pete Doherty: Suffers 'drug overdose'
Troubled British singer Pete Doherty collapsed after suffering a suspected drug overdose just before a gig in Austria.
The Babyshambles man was in Graz to play a gig at the Nonstop porn cinema which was scheduled to involve him playing films from his personal home video collection.
Pete Doherty's promoter Bettina Aichbauer called an ambulance after he collapsed at her farmhouse.
The 29 year old Pete Doherty was revived by medics but refused to visit hospital for further treatment. Instead, he decided to go ahead with his performance, though the crisis has made him four hours late.
When asked about his overdose collapse, Pete Doherty said, "There was some minor problem but it's a secret. Nothing bad, though - I'm still alive".
The singer's agent declined to comment on the incident. |
