KFIX Rock News: AC/DC Drummer Detained After Contact With Witness

More trouble for AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd on Thursday. Rudd, who faces charges of threatening to kill, and possessing methamphetamine and marijuana, was detained by New Zealand police after he had contact with a witness in his case.

Outside court, his lawyer explained, “It was a meeting with somebody he wasn’t meant to associate with in a shop. It was a chance meeting and then there was contact from that,” New Zealand Media and Entertainment reports.

Rudd, 60, was released on bail without facing additional charges. As an additional condition of his bail, he’s barred from consuming illegal drugs.

Rudd has pleaded not guilty to the charges he currently faces.
