AC/DC PHIL RUDD charged with attempting to procure murder

Iconic band AC/DC’s drummer PHIL RUDD was arrested early this morning after police raided his house in Tauranga, New Zealand responding to information from a member of public.

Along with the alleged hitman charges, noting to have taken place on the 25th and 26th September, Rudd faces further offences of possession of methamphetamine, cannabis and threatening to kill. He gave no plea to any of the charges at Tauranga District Court and if found guilty he could spend up to 10 years in prison.

Rudd’s bail was posted and is set to return to court in three weeks. No statement has been given with regards to the details of the reported offences and there was no comment from the drummer on the subject.

Speculation began when Rudd did not attend a video shoot in London early last month on the run up to the band’s 16th album ROCK OR BUST release. Fans were told his absence was down to family reasons from frontman BRIAN JOHNSON but no details or explanation was later given.
