AC/DC's Phil Rudd Remanded For Threatening Witness
UPDATE (12/4): Phil Rudd caught a break and is no longer facing charges for plotting a murder (see below), but he is lashing out against witnesses in the case—and a recent run-in landed him back in jail. After a brief altercation with his former security guard in a Tauranga coffee shop, Rudd was remanded and then released on bail. He'll be heading back into court on February 10.
UPDATE (11/7): After appearing in court, Phil Rudd is no longer facing charges for hiring a hitman to kill two people according to New Zealand media. The AC/DC drummer is still accused of attempted murder and drug possession, but the hitman-hiring charge—considered the most serious of the lot, according to Billboard— has been dropped. The rocker's lawyer added a statement that the drug charges were "minor."
