Footballer quizzed over second sex allegation
A Premiership footballer is reportedly being questioned by West Yorkshire police regarding an allegation of sexual assault.
It is the second allegation of sexual assault against the 24-year-old player in recent weeks.
The player was arrested on Tuesday in Surrey, with another man from London, according to the Yorkshire Post.
The two men are being questioned by police officers and are in custody.
Earlier this month the footballer was arrested and bailed on a separate allegation of serious sexual assault on a young woman.
A spokesman for West Yorkshire Police said on Wednesday: “West Yorkshire Police yesterday arrested two men, a 24-year-old in Surrey and a 26-year-old in London in connection with an alleged serious sexual assault.
“The alleged incident happened some time ago but only recently came to light during an on-going West Yorkshire Police investigation into a separate matter.
“The men are being questioned in West Yorkshire.”
The club in question was unavailable for comment.
