Taser cops arrest County star Facey
March
30, 2010 - Notts County striker Delroy Facey was arrested last weekend by
cops armed with tasers after a man was stabbed in broad daylight.
The
League Two player was ordered to kneel on the ground with a friend after
police stopped their car.
The
arrest happened in Huddersfield just minutes after a man with stab wounds
appealed to drinkers outside a pub for help, and the police were called.
Facey,
29, and the other man, 22, were arrested on suspicion of wounding. They were
questioned and released on unconditional police bail later in the day.
Three
suspects aged 30, 22, and 16 were then later charged with assault and public
order offences.
Facey
began his career at hometown club Huddersfield before spells at Bolton,
Tranmere, Rotherham and Gillingham.
He has
also been capped twice at international level for Grenada.
A cult
figure at current club Notts County, fans this year named March 19 as 'Delroy
Facey Day' in tribute to the player's hard work for the club.
Notts
County confirmed they were aware of the incident but refused to comment.
