Police have confirmed sometime Babyshambles singer Pete Doherty was attacked in his local pub last weekend.

According to reports, Doherty was "punched in the face" by a drug dealer at the Sun Inn, Marlborough, Wiltshire.

However, it apparently wasn't over any outstanding debt or other such business, but rather because the dealer was upset he was not being patronised by Doherty and his infamous habit.

Whilst Police confirmed to the Mirror, "We are investigating," an onlooker reports the dealer told Pete during the attack, "You should get your gear from me."

"It was horrible. Pete was really shaken up and upset," they add.

Babyshambles' label Parlophone have confirmed Doherty was attacked on Sunday, but claimed it was a stranger with no involement in drugs.

It is not known whether the incident was in any way responsible for his no show at his band's London gig on Thursday night.
