According to The Sun, England football star Andy Carroll was involved in a late-night street brawl on a busy London street. Eyewitnesses described the 6ft 4in former Premier League player getting into a heated argument with a man, which escalated into a physical altercation, resulting in Carroll’s clothing being ripped.
In a video circulating on social media, Carroll can be seen visibly agitated, shouting at bystanders who were trying to intervene, asking “What do you want?” The incident occurred just after 1 am when he and his wife, Billie Mcloughlin, had just left an upmarket restaurant in Mayfair.
Reports indicate that Carroll appeared to be intoxicated during the altercation, with his wife attempting to de-escalate the situation. Restaurant security personnel quickly intervened to control the situation and prevent further escalation. Witnesses claim Carroll was visibly enraged, repeatedly asking about the whereabouts of the man he had argued with and exhibiting a desire to continue fighting.
Carroll, who has nine caps and two goals for England, is currently playing for Amiens in the French second division. The incident is likely to spark an investigation by the club, another negative piece of news for the striker who has been plagued by injuries throughout his career.
So far, neither Carroll nor his wife has commented on the incident. The specific cause of the altercation and subsequent actions are still under investigation.
