Police, spokesman: Winehouse charged with assault

The Associated Press
LONDON (AP) — Police and a spokesman say singer Amy Winehouse has been charged with hitting a fan at an end-of-summer ball in London last year.

Spokesman Chris Goodman says the singer voluntarily went to a police station Thursday, where she was charged with assault.

Dancer Sheren Flash had been quoted by tabloid newspapers as saying she was hit in the eye by the 25-year-old "Back to Black" singer after asking to take her picture at a ball on Sept. 26.

Police said Friday that Winehouse was released and would be in court on March 17.

The retro-soul singer's career has been marred by drug problems and a series of run-ins with the police.
