Sterling charged with dangerous driving after crash
Raheem Sterling will appear in court next month to face charges of dangerous driving after crashing his car into motorway barriers in May.
Former England footballer Raheem Sterling faces court next month, charged with dangerous driving and possession of nitrous oxide, following a car crash in May. The 31-year-old, who most recently played for Dutch side Feyenoord, collided his Lamborghini with motorway barriers on the M3 in Hampshire. Sterling was arrested and released on bail pending further investigation.
Charges include dangerous driving, possession of nitrous oxide for wrongful inhalation, and failing to provide a specimen. Police suspected the player of driving under the influence of drugs, but that allegation was not included in the charges. Sterling is set to appear at Basingstoke magistrates court on September 15. No injuries were reported in the single vehicle collision.
