Troubled rocker Pete Doherty has reportedly checked into rehab.

Claims that the Babyshambles frontman is staying at Clouds House in Salisbury came just a day after the singer was accused of launching a violent attack on a female photographer.

The singer is said to have chased 22-year-old Cath Mead, in Crewkerne and is alleged to have kicked her and pulled her hair in the street.

Doherty recently managed to dodge jail time after charges of breaching his bail were dropped because of a technicality.

And it looks like Doherty won't be behind bars anytime soon after being banned from a prison gig for being a bad influence.

The singer was due to play a charity concert at Pentonville jail in London on Bank Holiday Monday.

But organisers have said that having junkie Pete on the line-up could give the wrong impression, so he will be replaced by his old Libertines bandmate Carl Barat and his new group Dirty Pretty Things.
