Raheem Sterling Charged With Dangerous Driving After Crash
The former England forward faces three charges stemming from a single-vehicle collision on a British highway in May.
Former England forward Raheem Sterling has been charged with three offenses, including dangerous driving, after a collision on a highway in southern England, police said Wednesday.
The charges stem from an incident on May 28, when a Lamborghini was involved in a "single-vehicle collision" on the M3, according to the Hampshire & Isle of Wight Constabulary. No other vehicles were involved, and no injuries were reported.
The 31-year-old Sterling is accused of dangerous driving, possession of nitrous oxide — commonly known as laughing gas — for wrongful inhalation, and failing to provide a sample for suspected alcohol or substance use, police said.
Sterling is due to appear at a magistrates' court on September 15 for a hearing.
Sterling is currently without a club. He has played for several of England's top teams, including Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal, and spent last season on a short-term deal at Dutch club Feyenoord.
