LIVERPOOL, England, Feb 28, 2008 (AFP) — Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has been cautioned by police for common assault in connection with a roadside bust-up with a man earlier this week.
Carragher, 30, was on his way to Liverpool's Melwood ground at the time of the confrontation on Tuesday morning.
Following a complaint by the man involved, Carragher accepted a caution from police, which amounts to an admission of guilt in English law.
Common assault is the lowest form of assault and can include anything from spitting to shoving.
