Joss Stone Targeted in Robbery, Assassination Plot

Joss Stone might need to hire extra security.

British authorities confirm that two men were arrested this week for allegedly plotting to rob and murder the pop star. They were apprehended near Stone's residence with swords, rope and a body bag in their possession.

"Police attended an address in Cullompton yesterday morning after alert residents notified officers about a suspicious-looking vehicle," a spokesperson for the Devon and Cornwall Police said. "Officers attended the area at around 10 a.m. and subsequently arrested the occupants of a red Fiat Punto."

The investigation will continue, as cops also took maps and photos of Stone's property off the men.

Last month, a local newspaper named Stone the fifth wealthiest British and Irish pop star under the age of 30. Domestically, therefore, Lady Gaga might wanna be careful.

UPDATE: The men have been charged with conspiracy to commit robbery and conspiracy to commit grievous bodily harm.
