Former Newcastle United and Liverpool striker Andy Carroll is set to appear in court next week after being charged with breaching a non-molestation order.<\/p>\n

The ex-England footballer, who now plays for National League South club Dagenham and Redbridge, was arrested in April this year following an alleged incident the previous month.<\/p>\n

Carroll, 36, is due to appear at Chelmsford Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Essex Police said: “A man has been charged with breaching a non-molestation order.<\/p>\n

“Andrew Carroll, 36, of Epping, was arrested on 27 April and the alleged offences relate to an incident in March this year.<\/p>\n

“He is due to appear at Chelmsford Magistrates’ Court on 30 December.”<\/p>\n

A non-molestation order is a UK court injunction, normally to stop a person from contacting another individual.<\/p>\n

The punishment for breaching the order ranges from a fine to up to five years in jail to the most serious of cases.<\/p>\n

Carroll played for England nine times between 2010 and 2012.<\/p>\n

In 2011, he moved from Newcastle to Liverpool for a then Anfield record of \u00a335m.<\/p>\n

He has also previously played for West Ham, Reading and West Brom.<\/p>\n

After a spell in France with Amiens and Bordeaux, he signed for Dagenham and Redbridge in July.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Former Newcastle United and Liverpool striker Andy Carroll is set to appear in court next week after being…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":215512,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[42,43,40,38,41,39],"class_list":{"0":"post-215511","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215511","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=215511"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/215511\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/215512"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=215511"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=215511"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=215511"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
