Re: Amy Winehouse arrested in Norway

Singer Amy Winehouse has been arrested and held overnight in Norway for possession of cannabis.

Winehouse was released on Friday morning after paying a fine of 500 euros (£350; $714), a prosecutor said.

She, her husband Blake Fielder-Civil and a third person were arrested at a hotel in Bergen after being found with 7g (0.25oz) of the drug, he added.

The singer is due to perform in the city on Friday evening before a concert in Norwegian capital Oslo on Saturday.

Winehouse will then travel to the Netherlands, where her European tour continues on Monday.


"She's paid the fine, so this thing is over for us now," Norwegian prosecutor Lars Morten Lothe told the Associated Press.

The arrests were made after a tip-off.

Winehouse, who won two prizes at the Music of Black Origin (Mobo) awards in London last month, was forced to cancel a series of concerts and appearances after reportedly being treated for drug addiction.

The US leg of her tour in September was shelved while she continued to address problems with her health, and is now expected to take place early next year.

The singer is also due to perform a string of dates around the UK, starting in Birmingham on 14 November.
