Sixties pop star Wayne Fontana could face a lengthy spell in prison after being accused of setting fire to a car with a bailiff inside.
Fontana, 61, who real name is Glynn Ellis, was arrested at his home in Glossop, Derbyshire, and charged with arson with intent to endanger life. If found guilty, he could face 14 years in jail.
A police spokesman said they were called after an allegation was made about petrol being poured over a car and set alight.
The singer shot to fame in 1964 with Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders. They had a US number one with 'Game of Love'.
