Coventry Editorial 18th Jun, 2020   0

ASTON Villa footballer Jack Grealish has been charged with driving without due care and attention in Solihull, and failing to stop at or report a collision.

The Premier League young star Grealish is accused of the offences in Waterside, Dickens Heath, Solihull, on Sunday March 29.

Reaction to the incident prompted a public apology from him on social media after he was accused of ignoring lockdown restrictions.

West Midlands Police said today: “An investigation was launched after we responded to reports of a car hitting parked vehicles and the driver fleeing on foot.




“The 24-year-old from Barnt Green, Worcestershire, has been postal charged to appear before Birmingham Magistrates Court on 25 August.”
