Arsenal striker Quincy Owusu-Abeyie has been released on bail after he was
arrested over a fight which broke out following the Professional Footballers'
Association awards ceremony.
The 19-year-old was detained following the punch-up outside the Cafe Royal in
central London.
One man, believed to be in his mid-20s, was taken to hospital with head
injuries but is not understood to have been seriously hurt.
Police were called at around 3am on Monday to reports of a fight involving up
to five men.
Dutchman Owusu-Abeyie, who has been with the north London club for nearly
three years, was arrested along with two other men.
The fight broke out outside the Cafe Royal's Elysium nightclub where a party
was taking place following the PFA Player Awards held at Grosvenor House Hotel.
A police spokeswoman said: "Three men aged 19, 28, and 35 have been bailed
pending further inquiries and will report back to police in early June."
Owusu-Abeyie joined Arsenal in the summer of 2002 from Dutch club Ajax.
The teenager made his first-team debut in October 2003 and scored his first
senior Arsenal goal against Everton in November last year.
A spokeswoman for Arsenal refused to comment.
