Les McKeown, lead singer of 70's tartan boy band the Bay City Rollers, has been arrested as part of a major drugs operation. The former pop star was detained by police in Dalston, in East London, last week on suspicion of supplying and possessing Class A drugs. The incident follows the arrest last month of McKeown's fellow Roller, guitarist Pat McGlynn and three others were arrested and charged with supplying cocaine.
It's not the first time this year Les McKeown has provided us with pop court news. As previously reported, the former star appeared at Thames Magistrates in early May charged with driving under the influence and leaving the scene of an accident.
