The former England footballer Paul Gascoigne has been charged with sexually assaulting a woman onboard a train.
The 51-year-old was arrested at Durham station on 20 August and on Monday British Transport Police confirmed he had been charged with one count of sexual assault by touching.
A spokeswoman for the force said: “A man is due to appear in court next month charged in connection with the sexual assault of a woman onboard a train from York to Durham.
It added that Gascoigne was charged “with one count of sexual assault by touching, contrary to section 3 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003. The charge relates to an incident onboard a train on 20 August this year."
He will appear at Newton Aycliffe magistrates court on 11 December.

Agents are part of the problem, its in their interests to keep their clients isolated and dependent on them

This kind of financial mugging is not restricted to footballers. Boxers for example get ripped off too.
The great Joe Louis (the boxer) wound up bankrupt. So did Sugar Ray Robinson, Hitman Hearns, Evander Holyfield, and Mike Tyson, just to name a few. Those guys earned upwards of a quarter of a Billion Dollars US, and wound up owing hundreds of millions.
How?
just guess!

No doubt another slag out to make a quick buck at the expense of a famous person, it happens all the time.
