  • Hampshire Police arrested 31-year-old Raheem Sterling on suspicion of drug-driving after a Lamborghini hit barriers on the southbound M3 near the Minley Interchange just before 9 a.m. Thursday.
  • Police said no other vehicles were involved and no injuries were reported; Sterling was also suspected of dangerous driving, possession of a Class C drug and failing to provide a specimen.
  • Sterling was released on bail pending further enquiries, while a source close to him confirmed the arrest but said there was "no proof" of drugs in his system.
  • The former England winger joined Feyenoord in February after leaving Chelsea in January, but made only eight appearances on a deal that ran to the end of the season.
  • The arrest comes after a difficult late-career spell for Sterling, who won four Premier League titles with Manchester City and earned 82 England caps, his last at the 2022 World Cup.
