Oasis star interviewe­d by police over pub altercatio­n

-

LIAM Gallagher has been interviewe­d under caution over an alleged altercatio­n at a London nightspot.

Police said they had been made aware of footage, published by a tabloid newspaper, which showed an incident ‘consistent with assault’.

The newspaper previously reported that the CCTV appeared to show the Burnagerai­sed former Oasis singer with his girlfriend, Debbie Gwyther, at the Chiltern Firehouse in Marylebone on August 9.

The footage appears to show Gallagher grabbing a woman around the throat.

Gallagher later denied he had assaulted her in a tweet.

He wrote that he had ‘never put my hands on any woman in a vicious manner’.

Miss Gwyther also denounced the story as a ‘pack of lies’ on social media.

The Metropolit­an Police said a man had attended a police station last month and was not arrested.

A statement said: “Officers are aware of footage of an incident consistent with assault believed to have taken place in August 2018 at a licensed venue in Chiltern Street, Marylebone.

“The footage has been assessed and inquiries will be made into the circumstan­ces surroundin­g the alleged incident.

“On Wednesday, 25 September a man attended a central London police station where he was interviewe­d under caution.

“No specific allegation­s have been received at this time.”

The force added that no arrests had been made and that enquiries continue.
