Former England, Liverpool and Newcastle United striker Andy Carroll has been charged with breaching a sexual assault restraining order and could face a prison sentence. The 36-year-old is scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
For legal reasons, details of the incident cannot be disclosed. The Sun newspaper reported that Carroll, a former England international, was arrested in April and that the crime had taken place a month earlier.<\/p>\n
In July, it was reported that an unnamed former Premier League footballer was injured in front of other passengers at the airport after entering the UK. Now that he has been charged and named by the police, it is revealed that it was Andy Carroll.<\/p>\n

He was detained shortly after stepping off the plane in Stansted after traveling from France. Essex Police said this week: “A man has been charged with breaching a sexual assault restraining order.”<\/p>\n
“Andrew Carroll, 36, of Epping, was arrested on April 27 and the charges relate to an incident in March. He is due to appear at Chelmsford Magistrates’ Court on December 30.”<\/p>\n

A non-molestation order is a restraining order issued by a civil court, typically intended to prevent a person from approaching, contacting, or being near another individual, their address, or both.<\/p>\n
If you violate this, you may face criminal proceedings and be sentenced to up to five years in prison, depending on the circumstances.<\/p>\n
At the time of Carroll’s arrest, a source told The Sun: “It appears that a matter was raised with Border Force officers at Immigration in Stansted and this was reported to police. He was questioned and then taken away.”<\/p>\n
“There were a lot of other passengers around where he was arrested, so it caused quite a commotion.”<\/p>\n
Carroll has had an eventful career in football since coming through the ranks at Newcastle before signing for Liverpool in 2011 for around \u00a335 million. The move did not go well, as he only scored 11 goals in 58 appearances before joining West Ham.<\/p>\n

He then moved down the division to West Brom and then Reading in the Championship before moving to Amiens in France’s second division.<\/p>\n
Carroll spent just over a season there before joining Bordeaux, who were relegated to the fourth division. He attracted attention during his short time at the club, scoring 11 goals in 23 games last season.<\/p>\n
He currently plays for Dagenham and Redbridge in the National League South. Carroll joined on a free transfer in July after leaving Bordeaux at the start of the summer, signing a three-year contract.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
