Carse assault investigation dropped by police

Police say no further action will be taken after an alleged assault probe was closed, while the Cricket Regulator opens its own investigation.

  • On Friday, Derbyshire Police closed an investigation into an alleged assault in Derby city centre, confirming no further action will be taken regarding the incident from August 23.
  • Officers attended Molly Malones in The Wardwick, Derby, in the early hours of August 23, where the 31-year-old was arrested on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly before being de-arrested.
  • England coach Brendon McCullum said Carse needs to "get his house in order" before returning to international cricket, as the bowler remains omitted from squads despite being officially available for selection.
  • Though police action has ceased, the Cricket Regulator is conducting a separate disciplinary probe to assess if Carse faces violations under English cricket regulations.
  • The Derby incident marks the latest in a series of alcohol-related controversies affecting England, complicating the career of Carse, who has taken 58 wickets in 14 Tests for Durham.
