Photographer says Pete Doherty attacked her

Cath Mead says musician threatened to slit her mother's throat

Paparazzo Cath Mead claims Pete Doherty attacked her yesterday.

The young photographer says Pete, 28, lost the plot when she took a shot of him with model pal Irina Lazareanu, 25, in Crewkerne, Somerset.

Pete reportedly kicked 22-year-old Cath’s thighs, pulled her hair, and then smashed her lens.

He was finally restrained by an off-duty policeman.

Cath has reported the incident at Crewkerne police station.

‘One minute he was OK, then he went crazy,’ she tells the Daily Mirror.

‘He shouted, “I'm going to slit your mother's throat”, and screamed, “You're not going to get away with those pictures, bitch”.

‘I knew Pete could be emotional but I didn't think he'd hit a 22-year-old girl. He was in a rage. He was totally out of control.’
