Raheem Sterling, the former England footballer, is arrested on suspicion of drug-driving following a crash in Hampshire. Police say that just before 9:00 am on Thursday, they received reports that a Lamborghini had collided with motorway barriers on the M3 southbound near the Minley Interchange. Police state no other vehicles were involved and no injuries were reported.
Hampshire Police say the 31-year-old driver from Berkshire was arrested on suspicion of driving a vehicle while unfit through drugs, driving dangerously, possession of a Class C drug, and failing to provide a specimen. He is released on bail while inquiries continue.
Multiple reports identify Sterling as the person arrested. Media outlets also cite separate claims and context about psychological strain and the circumstances surrounding his recent period away from the sport, while emphasising that the case is based on suspicion and that there is no determination of results reported in the available information.
Sterling’s playing career is also recapped, including spells with Manchester City and Chelsea, a loan at Arsenal, and a short-term deal with Feyenoord.
