UK Police arrest Chelsea player for racially assaulting an officer
One of Chelsea's women's players, Sam Kerr was taken into custody the night she allegedly racially abused a UK police officer, according to reports from the Court documents.
There are also numerous body camera clips filmed by police of the alleged incident, that will be used as evidence.
Kerr allegedly racially harassed the officer who has been identified only as PC Lovell by British authorities by calling them a “stupid white bastard” or “stupid white cop” in Twickenham on January 30, 2023.
Kerr was charged with using insulting, threatening, or abusive words that caused alarm or distress on January 21 this year, almost 12 months after the alleged incident occurred. She pleaded not guilty to the offence at a court appearance in March, and she is expected to face trial in February 2025.
However, her lawyers are set to argue an abuse of process at a pre-trial hearing on April 26, 2024, and are looking to have the charge downgraded or dropped. She is believed to have been interviewed, as well as detained when she was arrested over the incident. Her defence team has requested that the transcript and audio of that interview be provided to them.
