Police are investigating a report that Amy Winehouse allegedly attacked a man after a night out in north London.

A 38-year-old man told police in Kentish Town that the 24-year-old singer assaulted him on Chalk Farm Road, Camden early yesterday (April 23) morning.

Metropolitan police say they are continuing their inquiries.

The news follows a report that Winehouse assaulted two people outside a bar in north London. Various tabloid newspapers reported that the singer head-butted a drinker in the Bar Tok venue in Camden.

If eventually convicted of assault, Winehouse could face six months in jail, reports Sky News.
